S6 alloys

[quattrov6tdi]

Hi guys,
Bought a 2024 s6, traded in my 2019 s6 against it. However not long after purchase I went to fit the wheel spacers from my 2019 and discovered that the new car had cheap replica alloys. Wasn't happy so I'm got my own s6 alloys back from dealer. Now my issue is the car I bought is brilliant black but my alloys are from my silver car but they are the Audi sport alloy. Have time to refurb and paint but not sure of how I should paint and would also like to keep the Audi sport decals. Also callipers are black. Any advice appreciated, picture below.

Image isn't showing. I personally don't like black wheels, you lose all the detail of the wheels and look awful with a bit of brake dust on them. Maybe a gunmetal colour on a black car?

You can get replacement Audi Sport decals from https://www.brakecaliperdecals.co.uk/. Have your powder coater apply them and lacquer them in.

Thanks for reply, I don't know why the image isn't showing. The wheels have two colours, silver and grey, the grey parts match the car colour. So Im thinking off diamond cutting the wheels and leaving the sliver and painting the grey parts black. I will try post the image a different way

My brother in law had those same wheels on his black A7, they went well. If it were my car, I would keep the colours as they are, but thats just me

Thanks for reply and the input, I will talk to the refurb guy and see what he thinks and put them on the car as well when I get the back from dealer before I do anything
I will post results, thanks again.

Final update, got the wheels back from dealer and dropped them to refurb guy.
Two of the wheels were diamond cut already and not enough meat on the bone for another pass. So I opted for just powder coating, I very happy with the result
