Ok so last night i nicked a curb with my two passenger side wheels. im ****in pissed bout it. Anyways, ive decided to paint those blue suckers.

here is my colour options: Gold, Black,Flat black, silver.
pls give me some ideas as id like to get them done before friday.

Ive always thought the blue and gold looked good, plus the gold will make my wheels look bigger.

Black and blue looks good but ive had black wheels before.http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/67GTOchick/DSCN17950007.jpg

then there is bronze. but i dont know if it suits my carhttp://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/67GTOchick/DSCN22170015.jpg


please help guys, otherwise im gonna have to roll on my stockers till i make up my mind.
(ill post pics later of the damaged two wheels)

I learnt that with dark colour finish wheels it'll be very visible no matter how careful you drive. My black wheels are curbed too, I just touch up. Your 18" is even worse than my 17" I figure.

I think the best for your car is flat black or even glossy black. Maybe gun metal, not so dark.

We can powdercoat them black or Blue? i would have to use your cooking oven though.

black or something different. gold is yucky and bronze is over-done.

Agreed with black looking good. Its a little different on WRB, but still nice. Its hard to say any color is overdone on WRB cause its easily the most popular color of Rexs and most anything has been done to it now, know what I mean?

Not sure how well that would look with the WRB, but it would be worth seeing.

Are those prodrives or tarmacs? Tarmacs in gold would look nice on your car I think. You going with a bigger turbo with the FMIC?
