   In my opinion I think the car is too dark to have black wheels. anthracite is alright, still a bit dark though! I was thinking polished white, but i dont want it to be too in your face!

    I like to think the rule is;
    
    Light cars = Dark alloys
    Dark cars = Light alloys
    
    Biggest impact/definition whatever you want to call it

    i like them black mate, but white would look good, but a bitch to keep clean!
    i think just spray the pug badge black so it doesnt stand out as much, because afterall, it isnt a pug

    Yeh thats ultimately what i wanted to do. green details, alloys, roll cage etc. Problem is, that involves an awful lot money all at one time lol. How much do show cages usually go for??
