Apex ARC-8 on Sedona Red

Need opinions on which finish to go with on Sedona Red. I plan on getting the BMW Perf. Black kidney grills and the car will be tinted (not super dark) maybe 25 or 30%. I'm wondering with the black of the grills and tint if the Satin black would look good. Possibly even the Hyper black. All opinions are welcome and if you've got pics even better. Go...

I have Crimson Red and think the Hyper Black would look best. All depends on what look you like. I like the "dirty shoes" look (black wheels) but on red, but silver wheels look great also......I'm going thru the same dilemma. I've also noticed that some 18" wheels look like 19" wheels on these cars. And some 18" wheels look smaller....Finding the perfect wheel for the 1'er is a biotch.....

I would go with the Hyper Black. That is what I am going to put on my SBM. I like the anthracite too, but I think the Hyper Black would look better with that color.

Great...just what I expected, all mixed responses. Maybe someone will chime in with pics. That might narrow it down for me.
