Default Rota Slipstreams in Flat black or Gun Metal???

Hey everyone... I was planning on puchasing rota slipstreams today from JayDM.com over in california. There aren't many sites with good pictures of the gun metal and flat black Rota slipstreams. Any of your suggestions would be of great importance and most of all help to me, so fill me in on what you think. The people there said that they thought that the gunmetal color from rota looked really wierd... real glossy and kinda sparkly. In my mind, that's what gunmetal looks like, and I like that.
Flat black on the other hand is hot too. Not shiny and kinda dull, but straight spoon style. I love that as well. I know that I have posted about this before, but if anyone also has pictures of the gunmetal or flat black rota slipstreams, please post them as well. Thanks and let me know everything that you think, as I will probably be purchasing them within a day or two. Thanks!

Agreed. I actually agree with what the shop said about Rota gunmetal looking funny. To me it's just sparkly gloss black. But if you like it, that's what matters.

I personally think that you'd be fine with either color even with the kit. If you get 15" rims, I'd get 205/50 tires over 195/50 which might look small with a kit like that.
