Still can't decide on what alloys to change for so was considering keeping the OE ones and getting them refurbed matt black and getting vinyl added for the black optics (stealthy) look..
Anyway what do you think.. (photoshopped)

On second thoughts, with mugello I'd go with the optics and repaint the wheels in titan - black won't look as good on a blue car. |

I was considering titan but it's just going to be a stock RS6 dressed up as a plus if I do that - am going to go with the black as see how it looks in the metal, worst case I'll have to get the wheels re-done in titan if it looks pants..
Having trouble getting somebody to quote on painting the chrome and wheels at the moment anyway, you would have thought people would want the work or is painting the chrome a pain in the arse job?!.. |

It's no ballache - any good body shop should be able to cope. Once booked in get the wheel firm to visit the bodyshop and get the wheels done at the same time.
I know what you mean about dressing it up as a Plus but if it looks right then why not?! |

Hi
Update to my previous below had them done last week in anthracite - think they look awsome well pleased.. (Photo taken on iPhone so not the best and should probably have given it a clean?!)

Thanks guys, I'm planning on getting the de-chrome done later in the year along with a front end / arches respray - pebble dashed the say the least.. |
