Matt black 20" Stormer on a Java Black RRS: yay or nay?

Hi guys, long time no see... Thumbs Up

Well, it's almost two years since I got my 2007 TDV6 HSE, still madly in love with it BUT the other day I got stuck in some serious mud... As a result, I badly scratched all 4 wheels, especially the rear ones.

Now, since I'm gonna repaint them, I was thinking about spicing it up a little bit and going for some matt black Stormer. I'm not sure though, since right now I got chromed mirror covers and a TDV8 grille, the clear grey one. By removing the clear grey of the wheels, maybe it will look a bit TOO dark and the above mentioned clear parts might look dull?

Or maybe I should go with the partially black Stormer, like those?

Any advice would be really appreciated, some many choices, ahhhhhhhhh! Big Cry

Some pictures of a Java Black RRS with matt black Stormer would be great as well, thanks a lot! Thumbs Up

it's all a matter of taste. If you like it go for it. Personally, I think black wheels on mine would look hideous - but mine is fully colour coded black (mirrors, door handles etc are all black). However, a black and chrome combo with black wheels might look OK. As I say, all personal taste. If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....

Java Black HSE TDV6 O7, alpaca, FF sunroof, adaptive Xenon headlights, SC grill, black privacy glass, clear indicators, tow-pack, colour-coded all black.Gone, but forever in my memory. Until my new one comes...

It will probably look less classy and more "California-style"... Mr. Green

I'm still on the edge, on this picture they look pretty good to me:

But it might be the angle. I'm gonna ask a friend to use some Photoshop skills and TF9 if he still have some better pics. W'll see. Thumbs Up

Good choice, But now, change those orange side repeaters for clear or smoke grey ones and it will look
