Gold 763m on SMB M3 CS

Thought I'd post this here just in case anyone had interest in what the gold 763m wheels looked like on SMB. Sorry for the dirty car, just drove it back from an out-of-town detailer that did the Xpel and had the 763m wheels installed with winters immediately after at the dealer.

The intensity of the gold color really changes depending on lighting conditions, so sometimes it seems more "champagne" than gold. Either way, it's working for me.

That is an excellent combo that reminds for of the 997.2 GT3 RS in Aqua Blue with the factory gold wheels.

I also like your list of ex cars "17 Focus RS, 18 M2, 14 E63S AMG wagon, M3 & M4 (F8X), X5 50i, 335IS, VW Golf R, Audi SQ5, Porsche Cayman, M3 (E90), M5 (F10), A4 Avant (B8), S4 (B8), RS4 (B7), VW GTIs (MK2 to MK6)"

LOL looks exactly like a WRX at first glance.

The gold 763m's are your winter wheels? Wow, nice.

It does look a bit WRX-ish, though.

Although there is a WRX resemblance as several have pointed it...it does look good in its own right

The fact that you're using these as winter wheels is a little

car looks great imo. my car is TzB, I have 763 and I'm thinking of doing exactly that to them over the winter. so I'd also appreciate it very much if you could get better pictures of this thing, in the sunlight if possible. hope you're not also parked for the winter.

Sorry for the delay in posting a picture outside. I had it in the garage for the last couple of weeks over Christmas so I could apply C.Quartz on the paint, wheels and calipers and then was letting it cure before exposing to the winter elements. It's a cloudy day, but this is about as "gold" looking as it gets. Depending on the light, it can definitely look more "champagne" colored.

I think it depends on whether your headlights are dark or standard background as the former seem to blend better with a gold or bronze wheel.

Anyone know of anyone selling a set of the Gold 763M wheels?
