Cool Dymag Wheels are on! Lots of pics!

Hey guys,

My 2007 GT3 is slate gray metallic. The wheels are painted to match. It looks great, especially the contrast with PCCB.

I just came across a used set of matte black Dymag wheels. I couldn't pass them up. Should I leave them matte black? Paint them slate gray metallic? Paint them black? Paint them yellow? Side decals (black/yellow/none)?

Yellow seems crazy, but it has a lot yellow accents. Yellow roll bar and RS goodies are being installed too.

I'd say leave them as is, or slate gray.

Leave the decals and loud colors for the RS models. Part of what makes the GT3 endearing to me is that it is conservative vs the GT3 RS.

I like your slate gray look. Black might give you a little change up, but not my preference.
I have not seen a slate gray GT3. Great color for it. Any more pics?

So you have 2 sets of wheels now? Right? Leave them matte black! Matte black looks just like slate grey! Either way it going to look good!

Leave them how they are. On a slate grey GT3 they will be stunning, please post pics once they've been mounted.

Try them on the car as they are, It will look good, in my opinion black wheels will be perfect!, but not sure about long term quality/durability of painting the dymags by a third party.
Yellow wheels and yellow calipers together are too much!!!
