Forgestar F14 finish...

Hey everyone... I have finally decided what kind of wheels i want on my FR-S. Now i wanted to check in with the community to help me decide on a finish. I am going with 18 inch Forgestar F14s. Here are a series of pictures displaying black cars (my FR-S is raven) with the finishes i am considering. Any feedback would be most appreciative.

#1- Porsche is in Gunmetal
#2- BMW is in Titanium Silver
#3- Lambo is in Piano Black
#4- Chevy is in Matte Black
#5&#6- New Carbon Fiber finish that i may be able to get on the F14s

How much extra is the CF finish? Would go alright with my planned CF mods.

I would go Matte Black or Gunmetal.

Carbon fiber wheels wouldn't look right IMO, but that's just me.

Either way, nice wheels!
