Default Poll: Gold or Gunmetal

So, I am about to start sorting the wheels. Now, its whether I stay with the gold and black theme or paint them gunmetal. I am thinking gunmetal with a nice set of gold brembo's under them

Tough one. Gold compliments the black very well. Gunmetal may make it look understated which if its what you're looking for is perfect

Can you photoshop the wheels to gunmetal on the pic?

Think gold suits black a lot better, gunmetal would still look good but gold for me
