Actually, they look good on all colors - everyone who sees them say that they are very diiferent and preferable to the "normal" wheels.

JMO - I like them for their racy look and their rareness. For every 10 polished wheel vette there is one comp grey. Thanks for the pics. 
Got me to change my order from pol to comp. Saved 1000 bucks too. Really looks slick w white, the contrast.

But I still have to have them.

That is the main reason I wanted this option because it hides the brake dust better. Let me know if this is true and confirm with me

On a Victory Red car they looked TOO racey for me, I'd need to wear Nomex just for the drive to work. Traded my standard painted for polished.

I love the comp gray wheels.
Here's a very high res pic of them on my DSOM. Not posting the pic here because it's 3000x2000.
