Gunmetal rims on a black CL

I'm thinking about going with 17" gunmetal rims on my black CL. What does everybody think about gunmetal rims on a black a car? All opinions are welcome.

Anyone with pics?

lol, good lord eric...quit trying to get everyone to get 19's
u can't lower ur car that much w/ 19's....what fun is that???

i'd rather be slammed w/ 16's than jacked up on 19's...haha, but that's all personal preference....

i think that would look tight...
and try PM'ing Ghander..i do believe he has dark rims and a black CL...

I have gunmetal rims on my car, although its not black, but i think it looks alright. But gunmetal would look great on a black car. Go for it

It's funny how I've been on this board for almost 2 years and I don't have pictures. I 've taken some and had them developed on disk. How do I put them on here....
