Quick input on rim colours please...

I'm getting my old rims fixed and refinished and the shop wants to know what colour to finish them in (keep it same or change).

I hadn't really thought about this before, but I have until Monday to decide.

So I'm looking to you folks for some input and suggestions.

Car is silver RS and the wheels are a light bronze colour (see pics here - they're not mine, but look exactly the same).

Some pics of the car with similar coloured rims (these are a bit darker bronze). The pictures have been edited so its a little difficult to see the exact colours but hopefully gives some idea.

So the rims pictured on the car will be replaced with the rims from the first link in this post.

So should I keep the same colour (or as close as the shop can do), or change it?
Guy at the shop recommends gunmetal or glossy black. Not too sure about that myself... I've had gunmetal rims on the car before and didn't really dig the look (see here).

Your thoughts are welcome and appreciated!

Photoshoppers - if you can do quick renderings that would be awesome!

Thanks.
