After looking at their website pictures of various finishes I decided that the black would not show the spoke definition in certain light. Scott sent me a paint chip of the gun metal finish and I decided to go with it. Different light makes the gun metal look very dark at certain angles. Whichever finish you choose I am sure it will look great.

Yea, it was custom paint done by the previous owner.
The black had me a bit concerned over how easy it is to clean without causing "shiny" spots on the surface. It's somewhat porus and baked on brake dust might be a challenge to clean off.
So, the choice is GunMetal with Ti bolts..
