You're welcome to, but I don't think I'll be going gloss black. I like parts of this guy's CTS-V, but the stock gloss wheels + plasti-dipped grille look gross.

I'm glad you noticed the similarities between these wheels and the stock CTS-V wheels. Now you know why I've been pursuing this so hard with Breyton and Forgestar.
I don't think you can go wrong with silver wheels. It's kind of the conservative choice, but it will definitely look good. I think gunmetal will be more exciting though.

I sort of agree. I like the black grill vs chrome. The more I see pictures of the chrome on red, the more shocking that bit of chrome looks. Plastidip black is sooo easy, but a bit too matte/rough. But plastidip makes that gloss stuff now, I think that will help with the grill. I'd like to try that on my car, I think it will help make the black grill border "fit" a bit better with the car. Some gunmetals would really look good with that, I'd think.

I edit sniped my original post. I didn't mean glossy black, I meant glossy gunmetal...
