Default Gold/Bronze rims for white car?

I've been dead set on getting silver mesh wheels for the GenCoupe, but after seeing these, I think bronze/golf would be pimp. Thoughts? Ideas? Having a hard time finding pics online of gold or bronze on a white car that I like....

thoughts?

Don't add more colors to the car. It looks great as long as they're in shade and nearly black.

i really like gunmetal. i had them on my car for a while until they stopped producing gunmetal so i had to spray them all silver. the gold on white will get really boring after a while. it also looks too " 1998 toyota solara" ish.

just an example of the color:

but i love the design of the rim on the BMW. and yeah a Genesis Coupe looks best with a lip. i wouldn't have it any other way on that car. funny i would never ever put a lip on a Tiburon, ever, but the total opposite goes for the Gen. ...must be the Supra love in me.
