I've gone smoke silver/gunmetal but I'd lean more towards the silver side than gunmetal as I think that may look too dark.

Had plans to have my CLS 19s professionally refurbished this year around June guess that’s on hold now.

Personally I think those are the worst type of wheel MB supplied on a Merc  change them completely when you can afford to.
