hi i just bought a 08 gallardo spyder black yellow callipers lp560 kit , im ordering 20 inch forgiato cf rims tomorrow and need some opinions on what i should do. i was thinking of doing a flat black center with a dry carbon lip, but im thinking it might look better with a gloss cf lip . i had dymags on my 997 tt and loved them , they were glossy cf . opinions on what u guys think would be awesome since im kinda new to black cars and lambos LOL thanks for reading .

I like the look of glossy CF but I'd have to see both setups.

Do you have any pics of your new G? Congrats!

Here's a suggestion that will work perfectly for you 360 Forged Spec Multi with gloss black centers, and yellow lips. Asking price is $3200 without tires. Wheels are in perfect condition.

If you're not a fan of the yellow lips, we can get them re-done.

Dry carbon looks the best when clean but once its chipped it can't be repaired. Gloss carbon on the other hand you can always buff out light scratches in the gloss clear coat of the carbon and much easier to keep clean.

Uhhh, I don't think Forgiato uses real carbon. From what I understand, its just an overlay...like a sticker.
I've seen pictures of their carbon line, and it does not resemble anything of real carbon fiber (like Dymag, HRE, 360 Forged).
