Also another thought Jags, just incase you thought of colouring the bolts! What are your bolts made from?

Mine are Titanium (Silver/Chrome coloured) and Painting or Powder coat do not take to these very well, options are replace bolts (rediculous cost) or can you have them re-coated (Anodised) I don't know!!!

It's looking more like I'm just going for Black centres, Keeping Chrome lip and Bolts!

Hey Guys - after looking around this thread for a while and seeing some cool ideas, i thought id share a pic from the G35 Forum of a member who showed his custom Gold/Black Volk GT-C's.



I like both wheels a lot!!!!!

I think that would look pretty good on your car. Would match the interior too.

Yea it would look good, but honestly, your car looks AMAZING the way it is now. And while that may not mean much since your used to looking at it everyday, i can honestly say that is one of the nicest black/gold combo's ive ever seen.

but i know how fun it is to switch up the style so good luck with whatver u pick
