I am in a state of confusion and need help......

I have a 'Torch Metallic' (same as the US solar flare) H3. Recently I bought the H3 rear wheel cover (Black is all we can get here).

My main objective was to have my company information put on the cover for a bit of advertising. Although black looks good, it does not match any other black part of the car because it's gloss not matt like the bumper.

If you look at the following link, it is a photo of the rear of my car with my company details super imposed by the graphics company on the wheel cover... I think it looks ok, but really I need to get them to do the same onto a colour matched wheel cover.

All the writing that appears white is actually chrome, and the orange it a metallic orange simialar to the car. That would need to change if the cover was also orange...

My request is twofold.

Could someone with a solar flare H3 and the same wheel cover that is also solar flare in colour please take a good quality like the one in my link photo and send it me

keith@rutherfordfurniture.com

and ... what do you guys think ?? keep it black or colour match it to the car ?????

Thanks so much ...

Cheers

Keith

I would say match it...


I personally prefer the no cover look, but if your gonna have one I think it looks good matched.

it's very hard to tell from the picture that it's anything less than perfect....

I would match the color of the tire cover to your Hummer's color.

I agree with the above recommendations, I would have it painted to match.

much better than the freebie vinyl one the dealership threw in for me (along with the free advertising on it)

I think it looks pretty good as is. Color matched would look good also but not sure it is worth the hassle.

Either way would work (I know, not the answer you were looking for). It would look cool matched but I like the way it looks at is. Although black letters on orange (sorry, solarflare) would be easier to see I think

I say color match it. It looks much better in my opinion.  That's the H3x tire cover if I'm not mistaken.
