Color clash wheels? Opinion wanted

So one of my friends has these for his 350 so I decided to try them on. I like the concave, but I can't tell if it looks good or not on the diamond graphite color. (I suck at matching clothes as well).

Any opinions on these going with the DG color?

....crappy pics with low light, they are like a black chrome color.

Here are some daytime better pics with better lighting. It's hard for me to tell because everything on the car is chrome....maybe the headlight bezels black or something to tie it in.

Do you think it would look better with the healights black or do you think it ties in with the stock chrome?

if I get the from him I'll most likely change the color of the headlight housings. Black, color matched DG or black chrome. We will see, he is letting me try them for the weekend.

I would leave the lights stock, but paint the grill black chrome.

This^^

I'm surprised you had to ask if the color of the wheels looks good, black chrome always looks great with greys and silvers.

Sorry for the cheap *******, that's all I have to offer at this point! lmao

Those wheels look (*)(*) on your coupe! Regardless of what color you think they should be, they won't look as good as they do right now...fact!

@blue/deep: It's hard for me to tell if they clash with the amount of chrome on the car right now. Some great advice on the black chrome grill. Thx

@Gary: Lol, I think I might pull the trigger on them. I need to get my Ray's refinished and might use these for a second set. I was looking for lip wheels, but he was getting rid of these and i thought the concave look was a little different, it seems like everyone that has a G goes lip wheels.

Those wheels look so good, I'm jealous you got to try them! I painted my stock grill as well, it needs an update.

@Urban
He has three sets and was thinking about parting with these so I figured what the hell, let me try them on.


You painted your grill black chrome? Any pics?
