wheel color.....

[JETGSR]

**** I just painted mine black (satin) may as well be matt

but my bonnet part of the front bar and canards and splitter will be matt / satin too

and 1/3 of the side mirrors, once all the stickers go on in a matt black vinyl it should look tough / tracky <- hope not tacky!

will post pics when finished, if it looks OK

Go the VHT high temp silver colour (Called aluminium). Check my members ride (plug) for an example. Also whatever you do make sure to get some clear coat too for extra gloss goodness (means you can be lazy with prep and no one will notice haha)

VHT also has a rallye silver colour, dunno what it looks like, I was going to get that colour originally but no one had it in stock and I wanted to paint the rims on that day

using normal paint with probably a primer, might just color match the wheels to the car....

i might take you up on that bro.... let me set up the sand blasting first then get back to ya....

Colour matching sounds pretty sweet too... my vote has now changed to that

 

[JayRome]

just did a quick sand a spray to see how they would look color match to my car...... would probably be a little darker with a clear coat though...

[JayRome]

ahaha too late for white.... wheels are back from blasters... almost finished painting them just one left for a clear.... not a fan of shiny wheels so there kinda dull silvery grey.... close to the color of my car... few imperfections but i'm not one to really care...

there currently in the oven drying (yes thats my bathroom under the heat lamps)

 

[Gooch]

white

They look great on as well J

But I would of gone the white!! lol!

 

[JayRome]

damn everyone now chooses black! bleh.... oh well can always paint..

 

[kaotik]

hot dogg....looks good jay. well done

 

[GROOV3]

i reckon they would of looked best if they were that goldish colour like what they looked under the heat lamps.

that would os suited your car also.

silver does look good also.

Nice job JayRome, i actually voted for black but seeing the silver ones on i reckon you have made the right choice. The black would have not have been as visible against the lower half of your car. LOOKING GOOD!

 

[JayRome]

thanks guys, just have to fix one of the center caps, then i can put em all back on...

 

[GROOV3]

BTW i like the rims, pretty much look the same as mine. though mine are Viper Integral A2's ( i think mine a knock offs)

what did you spray yours with?
