You don't have this one but I love the SBC - Super Black Coat finished (by SSR or Tanabe). Also commonly known as Black Chrome.
Terminology various depending on the manufacturer. "WBC" by Work, "SMB" by Weds but they are all the same finished.
Attached is the SSR SBC finished

No on chrome or gunmetal. Not that I don't like gunmetal - I used to have gunmetal Volks on my Millenium silver GS. It looked great. But I have seen an SD GS (same color as yours) with 19" gunmetal Volks, and I didn't like it. It matched perfectly, but the cumulative effect was sort of a muted look.
I say brushed face/polished lip or black chrome/polished lip.

Chrome. Not just a chrome lip but all clean, bright, shiny chrome.

I would go with 2 peice, 20 in. black split 5 stars, with a chrome lip and black nuts to go around the lip.That's what I think would look good.

I would go with brushed face, polished lip, as most others have said. With your color car I just dont think you can go wrong with that combo

I voted chrome!
I think chrome wheels of any kind would look nice against the dark color paint!

Not exactly sure of what post you are replying to but the Zones would set you back a pretty penny but MRR's are a steal.

I am with the majority, brushed face with a polished or chrome lip. Chrome would also look great, but that's obvious because that is what you have now. Either choice will look great.
