    Yeah, you guys have so many colors that can look good, but getting them all to work is tough. Idk what I'd do. Probably bronze

    I personally find all shades of grey to work quite well on dark blue vehicles, white can look good to but its harder to get it right.. and of course black matches everything

    I want to go bronze but can't make myself do it...

    I sit back and look at the truck with all its black accents and the grey wheels look so out of place, only thing they match is the interior color. Bronze wheels would be even more out of place and they wouldn't even come close to matching the interior.

    Unless i found bronze plasti dip to put all over the place and/or was able to do bronze interior....i don't think i'd like the bronze wheels.

    So now i'm back to black level 8 mk6s

    Nice, if I went bronze, I guess it'd be the wheels and emblems. Maybe some interior parts or wet okole seat covers with accents

    Earlier models had a tan interior too I thought. I had a civic years ago with a tan interior and I hated it! Every little stain showed up and for me it's hard to find a color to accent the tan with. I like the grey cause black and accent colors pair well for me. You could go to automotivetouchuppaint.com and order your color in a spray can and use that to color match interior pieces. I used that paint on my grill and it's a perfect match.
