..with a set of Gold coloured OZ Allegre-margaritas or whatever they are called.

Can I get away with gold on a grey coloured car? I figure I might be able to considering the Abarth badge has a lovely swathe of gold (although strangely other badges show yellow)...

Whadaya reckon? It was part of an overall masterplan to go matt black wrap / JPS trim but can I get away with gold in the short term before / or if I wrap?! Only going to be used in the summer as will keep the petals for winter.

I'm thinking it's kind of stratos sexy cool in a way...  Huh? Grin

They could work. Although I see too many black scoobies and type rs with gold wheels. I've bought the Alleggeritas in white. I'll post some pics when they're fitted next weekend. I think red could look very good on your grey car...

Black with gold wheels would work, but not grey and gold.

After seeing those, I'm wondering if gold wheels on a red car would work? (Starting to have expensive thoughts again)
