Not sure if this is accurate but it appears that PG is the same as 07-08 350z Carbon Silver.

Guys, I have a quick question about the rim color for PG.

For white cars, the combo are usually, black rim w/ polished lip, gold rims w/ polished lip, and any other color rims.

For black cars, the combos are usually, black rim w/ polished lip, or any regular colors.

What is good rim color for PG? I am wondering Gunmetal rim w/ polished lip?

sbkim · 01-15-2009, 08:26 AM

My preference is to keep is simple and classy - leaning towards either just plain silver or brushed alum look with polished lip.

Isn't brushed alum almost same as gunmetal?

I belive gunmetal is darker and has brownish tint - and will go well with PG.

Not endorsing the look of the wheel but just for color comparison purposes:

GM

Polished

PG is the best colour for an average person that wants to drive and not spend too much time detailing and stuff.... it's one of the best...Dark Grays FTW!!!!

Ouch nogood, make us sound like lazy car owners

I just can't get enough of Platinum Graphite. I know its the primarily marketed color but you can't deny that it looks just that good.

LOL, I used to love to detail my car. Now with a house, wife, and three kids...there's no time for that.

Enjoying my PG

Sorry it is not cleaner, I have driven in 150 miles since Wed night and plan on using Zaino tomorrow.

SWEEEET man!!!! I love PG.

What all did you get with it?

I order mine like yours as far as I can tell from the outside. I also got the kick plates, floor/trunk matts.

NICE SHOT!

You should see it in higher resolution versus the scaled down one here. I plan on putting a couple of pics on a hosting site to show them at high res.

Crazy reflections. Check out my album I have some ranging from almost looking bright silver to ones that look pinkish in the sunset.

^^ HOOOOOLLY CRAP!! You're right. I love it! I can't wait! I still have like 2 months left to go though.
