It depends on what type of person you are.
The car will look fine with any of those choices.
Not a fan of gloss black though.

yeah, i realize about that. I'm tired of my rims with gloss black since it cant see my rims when i photoshoot during night time. it's time to change the color to silver or gold or gunmetal.

Polished or silver would look clean and classy! Add a little metallic for some sparkle and something different!
