OEM 19's powder coated gold or a dark gunmetal???

Does anyone have pics of the OEM 19's powdercoated Gold or a dark gunmetal? I have a black 08 G37 Coupe. I was thinking about doing a semi gloss black but now I'm thinking about either a really dark gray (slightly darker than gunmetal) or a gold like on sti's. I've done a search and seen a few in gunmetal but it still doesn't seem that dark and I saw a set of gold ones last week somewhere on here, but now I can no longer find them. Any pics will be greatly appreciated. Im getting my wheels powder coated next week and im torn between the two.

IMO you can't go wrong with both color but gold give you more contrast

I hope this car owner don't mind I'm posting his pic

Well the color woud be more of bronze color right? Not gold heh.... I have the 19's on my OB sedan in gunmetal. I think it is nice, but not as radical as the bronze. You will def get more polarizing looks w/ bronze. Either way it is awesome because even when my wheels are dirty/dusty they still look fine unlike the lighter colors of oem etc.

I actually decided to do a dark gunmetal and the guy showed me many shades of gunmetal/grey and said it will have some flake in it as well. They are also supposed to be doing my oem lugs/locks a satin black...so we will see how turn out. The wheel will be done weds but I'm not picking the car up until next fri though, Ill post pics :-)*
