Should I go with this color combo?

Hey Everyone. I have posted an original picture of my white 370z NISMO, along with a crudely photoshopped version of what I am thinking about doing. I want to powdercoat my wheels in a teal color, and do a matte grey wrap. In the picture I have also changed the red accents currently on the car to teal for some consistency. Let me know what you guys think. It's about 1800 for a wrap, and 500-600 all in to powdercoat the wheels. I do like the way it looks, but I am just not sure if I $2400 like the way it looks.

Your three stage Pearl White paint is absolutely gorgeous. Your proposed wrap color scheme is damn fugly :barf:

Save the money, I say. But it's your car. You do you and don't look back.

I appreciate the honest feedback. It isn't exactly the color that I want. Just there to give the idea of kind of what I am looking at.

As for the white, I really like the way it looks, but it gets super filthy super fast. Just figure that I need to clear wrap it anyways for protection, so I might as well change it up for a while with something that isn't permanent.

The gray doesn't seem to look great against the background. Hard to give a solid opinion. Wheels look good. Have tried the wheel color on the original white paint?

Here is the wheels with the white for comparison.

imo if you're going to get a very very very unique wheel color like they you need much more body work, like a patterned wrap or graphics

Gun metal or grey has been done with teal before but the matte finish with a high gloss teal is just too much of a contrast and hard on the eyes. There's a teal and white Amuse and that looked good. High gloss teal on a Nismo is just hard to look at.

Noted. I may think about it.

I wasnt thinking high gloss teal, Just dont know how to remove the gloss on that portion in the photoshop pic. See below for the color I was thinking of.
