Gold. Not too over the top, yet still noticable, but keep them clean or they will look all dull and crap, like mine do at the min !!

Silver, gold, or black. Mate has gold on his 306 and they look brand new, don't really stand out much either.

When you buy a new car they are sort of a goldy colour and IMO it looks really nice! Till they ger covered in dust

Red would be nice though?

(imo) Blue and yellow looks cheap and tacky - Chavs have a reputation for spending little amounts of (dole) money on a car, to simply change its appearance for the sake of modifying.

Examples: Chrome tat, V-Tec/GTi/M3 Stickers, Speedlines, Sunstrips etc
