How much different is the graphite vs gunmetal finish? Graphite seems to have a bluish hue but kind of absorbs the light to give out a silver looking reflection. Is it meant to be an exact match to the GT midengine graphite wheels. (I'm referring to the stage 1 powder coat MRR does in house.)

Their standard graphite has a silver hint to it the crystal grey finish which is stage 1 is a bit darker and has metallic flake to it.

There is a finish they call gunmetal as well. In this case matte.

Correct standard gunmetal I have a set of FS05 wheels at the shop in gloss gunmetal, there similar the M600 graphite just has a bit more silver to it.

Here's a good example of Crystal Grey in both the sun and the shade. The metallic content does a nice job of picking up warm highlights.

I've noticed on my graphite wheels in the lug holes the finish is really sparse. Ive not installed them yet so it may not show. They all four are like that so I assume it's normal. I'll plan on taking some good pictures when I put them on.

The Inside is lighter on the spray, but send some images and well check it out.

Do you recall what lug nuts you are using here? Yours look like they could be 1.9 or 2 inch overall length. The ones I have are regular length (maybe about 1.4) and I'm thinking having the end setting flush with the inner part of the hole would make the lack of color less apparent.

Not too sure. I use the ones that Paul gave me when I bought my previous set.
