Black, looks like a killer yellow version of RX7Rage's car! (Minus the Volks he has, LoL!)

Painting FD wheels on a CYM: stock, gunmetal, or black? ***POLL w/ PICS***
Hey all...without breaking the the bank for some real aftermarket wheels (for now anyways), I figure I can do some DIY wheels instead. Rather put more towards some reliable recommendations/engine work. Anyhow, which do you like best: stock, gunmetal or gloss black...on my CYM? The yellow n' black w/ subtle hints of red are my current combo colors. I see a several folks that have wheels done like this which is extremely nice and cheap to do. Also, I didn't know but Japan offered the 1992 RX-7 Type RZ and 1995 RX-7 Type R Bathurst X models with black-painted wheels. Pretty cool and wanted to share that.
P.S. ...whether it's gunmetal or black, the red brake calipers will stand out a lot more.
STOCK

GUNMETAL

BLACK

BTW, I reversed the photo so the exhaust is missing and photoshopped the gas-cap out. I dunno, I always liked car photos when the cars are facing right. Dunno, a photography-geeky thing I guess...."the intent of forward movement." LoL.
