Black/Silver/Gun Metal?

Ok I have a ivory pearl coupe wondering which color everyone thought would look better on my car. I was thinking black but now I have seen silver and it also looks sharp. What do you guys think???

i LOVEEE 5, i think all colors look hot on a white car, black and gunmetal are a little more racey/sporty and thats what i love, a little JDM look but not overdone, silver def. keeps that clean stock like look. You cant go wrong either choice, Martin!

I like #5, I think Ivory Pearls need some contrast, silver/chrome make it look to simple, no variation makes it look boring, maybe thats just be. Darker center rim (and nice lip) gives the car some focal points, your eyes will automatically be drawn to the rims.(Graphic Design 101).

Gun Metal.
Though silver looks very good, it almost gives it too much of a racer look? does that make sense? IMO

BTW, your tint looks sharp

Re: Black/Silver/Gun Metal?

I don't think you can go wrong with a white car... Your tint will blend in the darker colors of the dark rims, but since your car is bright... silvers will still look good. Just go with what YOU feel you like best.
