Alloy colour and calipers help!
Ladies and gents, I've been weighing up either getting my alloys refurbed or new alloys and have come to the conclusion I quite like the mv2s. I've trawled the images on google me can't find a picture of a titan silver e85 with either black (matte or gloss) or anthracite mv2s. Does anyone have by any change a zed in this combo, or able to do some magic photoshoppery with my picture to give me an idea of what they'd look like?
Next question would be with the dark coloured alloys,what colour hub and calipers would be a good idea? Red, blue, silver other? I'm a bit stumped at that!
Thanks in advance

Mr Wilks they look great! They look kind of a satin finish by the looks of it?

They look great but I think my mind is set with black matte satin. Just need to decide on my calipers.
Great isn't it, I do like this forum, I've been on a couple of forums with other cars (not zeds) and this one seems to be more informative and happy to help others and met a few mates along the way.

Mr Wilks, I have a set of MV2's I'd like refurbing. Where is your recommendation based and what's he charge per wheel. Want them done in an anthracite grey. Cheers
