I was going to repaint the rims because of the scratches, I got it off junkyard for cheap, I cant complain!
I thought of repainting it silver, but what do you think of gunmetal grey? Heres a quick photoshop:
silver
gunmetal grey

the gunmetal grey looks kinda good, but i think its a bit dark for the color of the car
heres in bronze, as close as I can in photoshop
I think it looks weird. probably just the color I made in photoshop
i think thats more kinda like orange, something more goldish would look badass on your car
well it wont look like that but ill find some rims that are bronze and post them
uhm yeah thats orange. But bronze would look hella tight, better than silver and gm
ok another try:
Looks great I think
thats more like it. i think it looks good
Yea, I like that!
yup...that color looks good...so are you going to paint them your self? also nice find for junkyard rims

thats about right maybe a little more gold but just as dark but it will def look killer
Yeah all the photochpped pics were kinda off so I tried to put my photoshop skills to it. Hope this helps ur decision.
ya maybe just a little darker but u got my drift
yeah im with ghettogeddy just a lil darker and they should look sweet

My first choice would be bronze, it look killer with your car!!!

2004-2011?
can you guys show me how exactly bronze rims looks like?
yeah I'm gonna paint them myself
The wheels in the above pic are gold. Bronze is a bit darker. Bear in mind, that's a photochop, you should be fine just getting some paint labeled as bronze. It will look different than the photochop when it's on your car.
Good luck!
I got these off google, is it something like this?

those rays are lookign sick i swear if i had a darker car id have those for sure
someone photochop those on his car those would look sick as f**k
bronze will be more like the 1st one, but honestly, it's your car. You need to do what you think looks good, not what we think looks good.
I dunno, I think when you have dark-colored rims on your car, they can sometimes look too much the factory steel wheels. Especially once you get rolling. People might just think that you've got an older car that all the hubcaps fell off of.
I think shiny silver rims or alloy rims just make the older cars like ours stand out more and tend to get people to take notice. But, thats just my opinion, and like speedpenguin said, you gotta do what you really like.
