Would you trade my wheels for blacks??

Hey guys, as said in previous posts, my dad and stepmom offered to buy me new wheels, if I gave them mine for the white TT cab coming in, in a few months...Started thinking if I would want to get rid of these wheels as I have grown attached...2 months ago when I was ordering, I flipped because I was dying for black 545's, well here is my chance, but the decision is a bit harder now...
What you guys think??
Now

Black

Evan,

Get the lower portion of the rear bumper and your bumperettes painted yellow before you do anything!

I think with a yellow car, black rims look insane.. the polished ones are more blingish...but black rims dramatic with a yellow "car... you can change your license plate to "KLR BEE"

I honestly don't like Techarts or RUF's, I am a fan of that 4" DISH in the back and 2 up front, flat wheels on such a widebody car just don't do it for me...

Evan, keep your originals, they look better, and more classy. However I do believe yor HRE's would look good on your stepmom's turbo.

Ditto! And why not just get a new set for your mom's car?
