Hi all

Thinking of having the insets and inside rims of my 19" 5 arm wing wheels painted black, as shown in the mock-up below. It's the black edition with black front splitter, black badges, and will have black side skirts at some point so I think it works. Has anyone had this done, or any views on it?

Cheers.

As anyone in fashion will tell you; blue and black do not go together. BTW I'm not in fashion....

Not sure anyone on here is interested in fashion mate. There's clearly a market for blue and black cars though.
 
Blue looks way better with silver/chrome on the wheels.

I have done mine and it looks pretty good
 
Personally I don’t think that works. Makes the wheels look too big as well. I say that as someone with a dark blue S3, albeit a Sportback. Having said that, I don’t really get the black pack thing.
 
Sorry not to my taste either. Its all too dark....you need an area of contrast to catch the eye, and a little bit on the wheels isn't doing it for me.
But hey some people think black cars with black wheels looks very cool. :fearscream:
