Which Color ?
So I am looking at the Foregstar CF5's in 20's and am thinking gunmetal for a finish and apparently there are 2 for Gunmetal . Which do you think would look better on a black SS ?

I like both, but the textured finish is more unique looking in person. Textured will be slightly lower maintenance also, and hides potential swirl marks with ease.

One thing I noticed and liked about the textured and please correct me if I am wrong , but judging from the pics on your CGM from various angles/sunlight these appear to almost change appearance which I think is cool .

Both of the gunmetals do that. They appear lighter in sunlight, darker in shade. Both have a metallic to them also. Here is how the gloss one looks in shade:
And the textured gunmetal in shade:

Both very nice. The textured would look meaner imo.

Why go with 20's when they come with 20's. Min should be 22's. My white SS came with the gunmetal. You want to be different get something with a lip. get them painted a color you like. Think outside the box. Do you want people to say "nice Camaro" or do you want them to say "that f'in camaro is awsome." Its your call but think hard before you do it. When you do, do it, Love It.
