Gray Anodized Fuchs

I obtained a set of 8" wheels the other day, the delivery of which created a quandry for me. I had planned all along to send them to Al Reed to have them polished to match my existing fronts (upper panel). But, after living with them for a week, the dual anodized look is growing on me (lower panel).

So, do we know if Al does that type of work? Have I been smoking too much crack and am deluded?

Discuss.

I agree with HD. The black background compliments the color of your car.

I'd say the upper, but that has to do with the quality of the pics. I have a feeling that seeing these up close might change my mind to the lower pic.

I like the top.

It's nice that you care about what we think, but, it's what makes you happy that really matters, so if you like it to hell with the rest of us and go enjoy your ride.

Scott,
Getting perspective was my motivation for asking but I agree with you completely on it being my call. Actually I was hoping to get more responses regarding who does the dual anodizing.
