Black wheels don't look great on Singapore. What about Red Clear brushed finish, or a Gold finish.

I think the black wheels look fantastic on Singapore - but I'd go with a flat finish rather than gloss. Sakhir interior on that combo would be amazing. Trim is a tough call; I think it would have to be piano, even if it scratches; there are very few times you come in contact with those parts of the trim. Unlike previous BMWs, the majority of the console area around the gear selector is not made out of that trim.

I do agree the black wheels really does change the way it looks. I love the way mine turned out, but I went high gloss black instead.

I like the Singapore Grey with the gloss black wheels. The one photo the car appears to be black. I have a carbon black E46 M3 and the color changes with the light on that one as well.
