Bronze on Orange?!?!

Sorry for all the discussion threads, but being a newbie that I am, could use some expert opinion from you guys...

I created a thread before regarding which rims to get, and thx to everyone's input, decided to clear out my bank account and go with some Works CR Kais... Hate to blow so much money, but I just love the way they look....

Now's the new dilemma... I drive a freakish orange 09 fit; I liked the coolor before, but now that I am looking into rims, I'm kinad limited what color to go with...

I'm caught in a dilemma between BRONZE or MATTE GUN METAL. i know the gun metal would match well.... but wondering how BRONZE on orange would roll...

Helpp!! need as much input as possible, any input would be much appreciate it! If ya seen any or have pics of Bronze on orange, please give me a shuot! Much appreciate!!

I think it'll look good, I say go for it. I've got bronze on orange, it's not on a Fit but the color combo looks good. I had black on orange prior and I have 2 say that looks pretty good too but just doesn't show off the wheel well.

I've looked at it online at tirerack or discount tire where the computer puts wheels on your car and it looks pretty good

Only trouble with bronze on orange is the tendency of the orange body to soften the impact of the bronze. Basically, the wheels might not stand out as much and just "blend" with the body. If you're fine with that go ahead.

I'd suggest a very deep dark bronze to make the wheels more distinct.

Just my two cents' worth

I'd just go with standard silver or brushed aluminum. For what's It's worth my color wheel says the proper accent color to orange is blue but that borders on rice. I,ve never been a fan of bronze/gold rims.

hmm i say go with the gunmetal, i kinda want to say the bronze and orange kinda blend and clash at the same time.
just my two cents...
