I recently messed up the lips on my rims and are fixing them now but are going to have to pain them some color and Im pretty inbetween a gunmetal or a high gloss black. My car is a red 2g with a high gloss look to it with a full black interior and Evo 9 rims. I know theres a lot of 2Gs out there with painted rims, if you guys could chime in and post some pix of your car/rim color it would help me be at ease with my decision. I was looking around the gallery not too many good shots of red 2Gs with black or any color rims
 
One other option is to paint the inner part of your rims the color of your car and the lip black or the other way around.
 
Dont do a two/color wheel. It looks a bit ricey. I would suggest doing a black rim with silver/chrome lip, or do a gunmetal. If you want to be different, and the color doesnt bother you, you could do the gunmetal with more of a gold tint than silver.
 
yea im really torn between gunmetal and a high gloss black idk what i want i really want to see some other car's pix im going for a clean non ricey look. Im about to start an office job and want to keep it respectable
