I like gloss black and gloss silver. Mine where painted gloss silver. Also my car is silver grey.
Heres some before and after pics of the job.
It was a quick job, but it still looks good today, six month later. Good luck on making a decision!

My Ride: 2005 BMW525i 20 inch wheels, tinted tails windows, and headlights, acs style spoiler, painted calipers, HID fogs, angelibrights, 1999 Chevy S-10-lambo doors, retractable license plate, rims, lowered, custom thru body kit exhaust w/twin slash tips, ect..., 2007 gsxr750 fully modded.
can u elaborate on cleaning process, I plan on doing this mod when i get brake pads/wheels but i want to make sure i do it correctly because if its not prepped properly it will chip and look crappy.
