Should I do this?!

I've got some small scuffs on my stock Enkeis so I found a local shop that repairs them. It just so happens they do powdercoating too. If i were to powdercoat them a grey that matches the shade of the GG paint with a red lip, would it look good?




Stock pics for reference, which looks best?

I'm hoping around 500 bucks including repairs. I'll be getting a quote soon.

I know the Time attack scheme is nothing new. I still like it though Although it would be grey with a red stripe, not black.
