Whats to do trim and wheel colour- advice pls


I am considering this car and need some advice/opinions. Not too keen on the "all black" So what suggestions are there for
a, having the wheels, side vents and front the grill - returned to original silver
b, the side vents only replaced with original silver
c, wheels and side vents - silver
d, side vents and front grill silver

Would look quite nice with option (a) returned back to factory state.
Is it a facelift or actual latel model L322?

The current "fad" is the new and fresh look of "titanium" it seems. Gary Elliot does that with his facelifts and they look great.

I'd keep the black wheels for winter with winter tyres and go silver for summer.

I would also go to silver/titanium on the grille, vents, splitter.

Depending on the state of the doorhandles, replace those as well if the current ones are tatty. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

markyp - Nice looking FF. I really love the early SC wheels. Was one of the first upgrades I made.

Markyp- thank you for the pics. Great example- am leaning towards - returning the wheel and side vents to original.
mjdronfield - Please dont offer me any more options- i am easily confused and led astray, lol. 2011 5.0SC Santorini Black

Thanks- Any idea on costs - to bring the wheels, side vents and possibly front grill back to original factory colour. Are the side vents/front grill painted or wold new ones be required? 2011 5.0SC Santorini Black
