Here is my silver SLK with brushed aluminium finished.


Info on these very cool rims. Also are they 19" or 20", and how wide?

Thanks.

Two tone

Gold on Silver is a natural combo.
It's done frequently and common on Rolex watches.

I think I would do more matte gold or a little more on the bronze spokes. The picture isn't 100% gold.

Not a fan, a little too bling. Two tone gold and silver only looks good on a Rolex

because its in a small dose. Silver and a gunmetal or lighter gray would look great.
ona side note
I do love how somehow Rolex is the standard in a watch... its a swiss made movement and if you truly want to have THEE watch try the tourbillon watch on for size.
I guess my point is I steer claer of anything Breitling or Rolex, simply because they are just that. bling, its making a look at me statement.
I dont belive a 911 turbo is a look at me car like a Lambo etc.

The picture looks nice, but keep in mind its a professional picture taken in a very nice setting! Anything will look good there! hahaaa

I have seen silver cars with golden wheels, not a nice combo in my opinion.

I like it as well, the car looks very cool. I don't always subscribe to the majority position theory. If you like it, go for it.

If you like it roll with it. It's hard to make silver stand out without going crazy but that gold seems to work.
