Chrome vs Copper Alloys – What’s Your Pick?

[Oldham SEAT & CUPRA]

The copper definitely doesn’t stand out on certain colours and my desire red is one of them. It is a lovely colour though

We can understand this. That said, do they match though? Copper has red undertones which surely compliments the paint?

Chrome gets my vote. You can overdo the copper colour, if you're not careful, imho.

Totally get it! It does all come down to preference! It's why it's always good to see the car in person or if ordering from new, building on the website! Do you think body colour plays a role in you choice?

Absolutely body colour plays a part. Copper looks good on the dark matt grey cars, but my car's white, so there's a real risk that it would end up looking tarty.

Totally agree. I swapped my perfectly good silver mk4 Leon for a desire red one, I couldn’t get on with silver Desire red was dropped as an option days after I ordered it!
