white will not look poo i have a silver scooby with white rims and get lots of positive comments on them. they are different from the usual silver gold black and anthracite that you see on every motor on this site. take a look at my albums to give you an idea on the white on silver combo

I agree with zippy, silver cars are always seen with gunmetal, gold, or black, mainly black, so to be the norm have one of the above, or be different to others and go for WHITE. I know people have their opinion but at the end of the day it's yours thats counts as you have to be in it and look at it.
