It was MrsWCA who finally swung the vote to black.

We were talking colour and I was showing her various pictures in Shades of red when she said "the red is okay but your cars are black, all your cars that are special are always black"

I hadn't really noticed but she is right so black it will be.

The remaining question is the wheels - powder coat black or silver or black with silver rim?

But black wheels with a sliver rim may lift it enough

Good pictures to show the effect.

Black with silver rims is winning at the moment as they are easier to keep looking clean.

I do have two set of wheels so maybe the other set could be silver...

Nice wheels. That's an interesting model name for a tyre. I did a double take and nearly spat out my corn flakes.

I've led a sheltered life; "Triangle" is a swear word in our house. Unlike "CNTT G Spot" which is the name of our cat.

You were lucky to get those. I have heard that the CNTT G Spot" is notoriously difficult for men to find.
