I have Sportspack Arches on my mini and wheels... I need a change. The arches are starting to chip (repros) and I'm thinking about spraying the arches black. What do you guys think?

Hmmm yeah I see where you're coming from. I actually wanted different arches but it costs too much to get the holes filled and re-sprayed etc...

I think having black arches looks fine depending on what colour the rest of the car is! here look at mini and see what you think?
