DPE S-20's GOLD LEAF OR SEMI-BLACK ?
Taking the plunge to get new wheels tommorrow. I have a 04.5 IP coupe with a KS kit installed. I love how the gold leaf pops to my eyes, but I also feel the Semi-black will tie the whole car together since the cf fog light housing & the paint matched lower section of the rear bumper. Any thoughts on this before I take the plunge would be helpfull.

Gold doesn't look good on a white car imo. It looks good with red or black. I would go with the semi gloss black or if available polished aluminum center and
chrome lip/polished lip. Imo polished aluminum is the best finish on a wheel. I have had two sets and they were both very easy to keep looking new. They
look flashy like chrome put never have to worry about chips or nicks.

I'd say IP gold just to set it apart. The black would go nice with the KS kit but it's more less like people will look at the car as a whole instead of pointing out different parts. The KS will catch their eye then they'll look at the wheels and say whoa and then they'll peice it all together and make a decision.

Whats going on Dubs. I personally think that is the best wheel that comes in gold, so if you do decide to go with the gold you wont be dissapointed. The only thing I would be afraid of is getting tired of the gold finish, I think its a phase that you would get tired of after a while, but thats why they have powdercoating shops, lol. I would definitely go with the black ones, but as you know, I am being biased. My opinion is, go with the gold since your car is already different then most of the others. So why not make it even more different. But either way, it will definitely look sick.
