Smile pic request, of 128i spahire with matte black v710's or csl's

hey guys. I have a 128i black saphire. Im trying to decide how a matte black wheel would look with this paint color. Would the wheels look to dull or look dirty or faded because of the gloss in the paint? anyone have any pics.
thanks

I am also trying to decide if matte black is too much black for a black car and thus something like the advan dark gunmetal is better. The vmr gunmetal seems a bit too light IMO.

I think we want to know if matte black looks good on a black car, or whether it would be too much black, and a lighter colour would work better. We know that matte black looks good on white etc. Guess it is a personal choice.
