Default Picture request - Newage in silver with silver/anthracite wheels

As the title, does anyone have any that they can post?
I have an 04 STI in Premium Silver, and have been embarking on some "toning down" work - de-tango, de-badge etc.
I am now looking at the wheels and thinking that gold looks wrong.
I may not stretch to new alloys, but am seriously conidering having mine refurbished in either silver or anthracite.
Any pictures would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I am keeping a regular check on e-bay, but have not yet seen anything that has caught my eye.

Elmer - I must say that your car is really special!
I saw it on a thread a couple of weeks back, and if I am honest it was the inspiration for me to start fiddling with mine!
So far I have de-tangoed the headlights & rear indicators. Have also removed the SUBARU letters from the boot and the stickers from the fog light covers. I was going to go for the black stickers like yours, but the naked look is growing on me, so I may not bother.
I am expecting a Scott Lowe front lip tomorrow, so once this is fitted I will post some pictures.
Now then, those wheels..........

Why thanks very much

but don't you go blaming me when you have no money left to spent on food and clothes...it can be a very slippery slope once you start messing lol

btw,don't Revolution have an offer on wheel and tyre packages at the moment?

Smile Anthracite Wheels

This is my STI8,had the wheels done when i first got the car ,luve the way
they have changed the look of the car,show of the brakes as well,
the only down side is they chip easily not a problem for me as weekend toy but
if yours is a daily driver i would think about powder coating.
Hope this helps mate.

Thanks for all of these.
Out of the lot, I think I prefer the ones on DJ Dunks car - which is good, as it will be the cheapest option!
Looking at all these excellent silver Scoobs makes me wonder why every man and their dog buys blue ones!
Keep them coming!

Grill and front spliter are Lester items. I got them from www.ets-racing.co.uk. I think they were around £180 for the pair before painting.
