Turns out using Alabaster Silver Metallic as an accent to the wheels was a tacky idea

I cut out the color swatches from the Civic brochure and slipped them between the door edges in order to test. I came to the conclusion of either matching the black OEM paint completely or to accent a step down the with the graphite gray (Polished Metal Metallic). Something that's not too unappealing to the eye, good looking out 8thcivic.
