Default Changing wheel color - need help. :)

Hey guys,

Here's my IS350:

Planning on painting my wheels purple since I'm growing tired of my current hyper black color.

I'm trying to decide between two different shades of purple.

First: http://prolifik1.files.wordpress.com...rple-te37s.jpg

Second: http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._6629429_n.jpg

Could you guys chop up two pics for me? One of each tone of purple.

Much appreciated!

I took a pretty crappy shot at it... but going from silver to such a drastic color is gonna look a little weird anyway, then the colors are so close I end up exaggerating the difference. Theres a bazillion little nuanced ways of getting the color just right, some I find easy and some not. This one was not.
