why not gloss black? u have a shiny paint job, get the chrome strip chrome again and do the rings a high gloss black... maybe go to audi and pick up a paint touch up kit of brilliant black and audi clearcoat and paint it all spiffy like?

I really wish I had left my rings alone or painted them body color. At dusk my car looks ****, but during the day theres a bit of a shine and you squint and see the rings and it just looks cheap. I do love the black surround though!
