Question Strakes for TI Gray Rx8?

Hey guys I am looking to replace my strakes with some new ones. I believe they are the silver alloy ones. Anyways, I was stuck between a few choices and wanted some opinions. My choices are: Titanium Gray, Extreme Black, Silver alloy, and possibly gunmetal. What do you guys think would look best on my 8? I kind of like the black because it would match the black strakes I have on my bumper. I would like to order then tomorrow so they arrive before a meet I am going to on Saturday. Who makes higher quality strakes, Rx8 Strakes or Rotary 13B? Thanks.

I think gunmetal would look nice on your Titanium Grey...either that or Extreme Black....

I say Gunmetal to match the rims and hopefully come close to the clear corner color.

Yeah I think I like the Gunmetal as well. I just want to make sure it will match the rims and look good on a Ti Gray.

Yes. Sorry about that. I've been off at college without my 8 and haven't had much time for the forum . Anyway, here they are. I think the gunmetal looks much better than the silver alloy ones I used to have.

No worries, thanks for the reply. Those Volk GTS wheels look fantastic with the Titanium Grey body.
