If you are putting chrome rims on have you considered chrome letters for the inlays?

Wait, you have chrome or black rims? I think chrome inlays would look good with chrome rims.

Edit - Silver metallic would look good too imho.

DSG, or silver metallic. I'm gonna vote more towards the silver.

Already tired of the all black theme? If you were to stay with the all black, I'd say gloss black inlays would look cool on the flat black emblems. If you're going with chrome wheels, either chrome, silver metallic, or DSG inlays.

yes i have a set of chrome rims and im also keeping my 7005's for the winter.

i dont think the metallic silver would look like the sample.

i think im leaning towards DSG.

thats a good idea , i didnt even think of gloss black, it would be similar to the paint and the rim color wouldnt matter

Not a very good pic but its Metallic silver. Actual MS falls somewhere between their sample and my decal. Sunlight is washing mine out a little.
