However, I much prefer red to star silver. I've owned two in Star silver Z157. :-\

As it's an early F/L mine has the early type which I'm not too fussed over,but I'm not struck of the later ones either!So I'll stick with painting the ones I've got,the lacquer's peeling something rotten on them.

How about the early FL MV6 ones? Very similar to the Elite ones but with a small flare @ the top of each spoke?

I'm sure someone has a pic

Early ones for me, they're more pleasing to my eye. The later ones seem too sharp & cheap looking.

yep.. for the pre facelift body they are more suitable .. but in my opinion omega series deserve a much better wheel design than any of the available.. so I go for special model :P
