Any photoshop Gods around?

What would 442M alloys in a powder coated Ferric Grey 2 look like on a Black F32?

Thank you very much!!!

Well no need for a photoshop. Here is the real thing. My wheels were so badly rusted after the snow and ice we had recently. Diamond cut are not practical for UK roads.

I went for Ferric Grey II

Best decision I made. Should be much more durable now.

Good choice. Ceramic coat seems to help with polished or diamond-cut wheels, but you're only delaying the inevitable. Paint or powder coat all over is the only real solution.

Literally deciding what colour to have the wheels on my 640 sport done, ferric grey looks good. Really like the grey with a hint of bronze colour that’s on the new z4 too.

Do you have a wider photo? Want to get a better picture of them as a whole as I'm thinking about doing the same and we have the same colour combo

The badges arrived earlier this week from CotswoldBMWMini so I need to stick them on. Photos as requested.
