So I bought these excellent Work Meister 18" 3 piece split rims from ChrisT70. Lovely rims and looking forward to getting them on the car. Have decided to get the centre/face painted a different colour to go better with my Vesuvius C2S. Narrowed it down to

Matte Gunmetal face/polished silver lip
matte bronze Face/polished silver lip
Matte gold face/polished silver lip

So from this



To one of the three options above that you can see here

Thoughts?

I'm leaning towards the bronze centres at the moment. 3 days to decide.
 
I'll go with your first choice - gun metal with silver lip.
 
Match the body colour:

My Cup 2s are finished like that and look great. I think I would go to that if I don't like what I do first time round!

Gold would be my next choice then :thumb:

Yep I think it would contrast the paint really well... But then I keep looking at the gunmetal... Decisions decisions!
 
Body colour or Gunmetal IMO. Bronze would work better on Black or White but I can't see it working with Vesuvius. :?:

Steer clear of Gold as there's only one 993 in the village with Gold Centred Splits... and that's mine. :grin:

I'd go for grey out of the choices you listed, but also like body coloured centres on a dark coloured car.
