Yellow or Standard chrome?

For the centre caps. Buying a second set of 182 wheels which will be refurbed in MATT black. Cant make up my mind on leaving the diamond on the centre cap or having it done in LY. Thoughts please:)

Standard chrome. You'll want a satin/ gloss black for the wheels though.

Matt will just look like steelies.

Gloss black on liquid looks ace :D

satin reflects the light but is not glossy!

matt is flat and does not!

:D hope this helps!

i got my wheels finished in satin look on my kc thread to see the finish bud!

nooooooo dont touch it at all, looks good as it is , not a fan of matt back as it just looks like a half ar*d job IMO, dont see the point in polishing your car and getting the perfect shine for your wheels to look sh!t just my opinion though ;) satin is a semi-gloss i believe, matts just well .... matt lol

opinion noted. Emma (my mrs) is trying to persuade me to leave the wheels:eek:
 
i thought about doing my diamond ly, but had a change of heart after i spent hours with the clay bar and polish on it this weekend, stood back looked at my wheels and thought theres no way i could change them, they suit the car perfect as they are mate, dont go changing the colour!

I'd have the wheels satin, and leave the diamond silver not yellow. I think the Yellow diamond would look lost in the black wheels.
