Not a fan of black wheels myself, I think the wheels being silver does a good job of breaking up the yellow and black theme...
What have you done to your P5 today?

Lol...I went by that little pic and was like...that looks familiar and then saw your post and realized why I recognized it...
I did have a photoshop of the the black on there and didn't like it honestly which is the reason I decided not to do it...they just really didn't flow like I was expecting...unfortunately I don't still have the photoshoped pic...
I agree, when you have such a bold color, like yellow, which is contrasted starkly by black, the silver does a good job of keeping the car from being too "in your face" with the yellow/black contrast. Its easier on the eyes IMO...
I feel the same way about my red BMW, black wheels would hurt the eyes with the contrast between the bright red and black. The silver helps ease such brightly contrasting colors.
But yes, to each their own...
did you hit something that day? It looks like your hood is popped up......
i FINALLY installed the new spoiler on my pro5 that I had bought from fellfrosch7 back in Dec '08 (cabpatch) Its been sitting in my trunk since I got it! lol
Before (i was too lazy to repaint this one so I bought his for $60 shipped)
and AFTER!!!

Car looks good in that pic, and so do the black wheels, but with mine I have the mirrors, turn signals, bumper lights, rear valence, keyhole surround, tail lights done in black and with the wheels it was way overboard which is part of the reason I decided to take the black Mazda3 rims off...
yah it was from a rear end collision, car is finally in the body shop right now. The only visible damage from the outside was look like hood was popped , missing grilles, and headlights pushed in a lil. But once u opened the hood u can see the supports pushed back a bit. Damage is around 5300 dollars, yikes.

I like a soft silver like Hyper-silver (vs Chrome or Black)
Wore my P5 shirt and made sad faces

the maf is simply rotated 180 degrees. this will not affect the reading of the sensor.
