They are going to be put on a garnet red car(in avatar)with window tints in the near future.So hopefully the whole car will have a dark theme set off by the metallic red paintwork
The colour is actually Ford graphite grey,it caught my eye and looked similar the darker volvo alloys with a bit of a twist!!
