Shadow Chrome, Anthracite or plain old silver?

[B17NNS]

Picking up a new Tuscan in a couple of weeks and the dealer is very kindly refurbing the Spiders for me and has given me a choice of finish.

Anyone got a (ideally Tuscan) Viper Blue car on shadow chrome or anthracite spiders with a pic or two to share?

Thanks in advance.

+1 to that.

Wonder what it'd be like with Rolex Blue.

Well you know what they say...
Shadow Chrome is the new anthracite

Here you can find some pics of a olympic blue Tuscan with matte anthrazite wheels:

I have been going round and round in circles with this very same question, although my car is a slightly darker blue.

Last week I was considering trying the plastidip on them to test drive the anthracite colour (but then dithered whether to add the metallic or gloss coat).
Currently back at original silver.

Everyday is a different fence to sit on.


...............but shadow chrome appeals to me as close to original but dark enough to not require washing the wheels to often (something I detest and can just about stomach spraying on wheel cleaner and jet washing off).

So may have just talked myself into todays choice.







roll on next week.

Shadow chrome!!!
Mines silver but this should provide a good idea of what the finished wheel would look like;

In case you change your mind OP, here are a couple of poor quality photos of my Estoril Blue Tuscan with dark anthracite wheels. Shadow chrome has never done it for me, nor has anthracite come to think of it. You can't go wrong with good old factory TVR silver in my eyes, but each to their own.
