Lude Generation

Well Dom did it the other day, so it's my turn now. I did want to keep this to myself until it's a reality, but I am very undecided on one little detail.

As she stands at the moment, she looks like this (but a little lower at the back)...



Before Japfest I hope to get the rims powder-coated. From the start I thought I'd go for white, having been influenced by this (I know it's a slightly different colour car )...



But since photoshopping it, I decided it's a no no... I hadn't even bothered photoshopping it properly!...



So I went a shade or 5 darker, but it just looked a little bland...



So I've decided (for sure) that I'm going to go for a dark grey/anthracite shade (Matt black would be too dark and loose the spokes)...



But I've since had another big influence... From this...



And I also want to add a little touch to the rims, and this is where I'm torn...

I've narrowed the choice down to 4 colours...







Petrol Blue (A simular, brighter colour than the Monterey green of the car)...


Royal Blue...


Red...


Or yellow...


EDIT: Late entry (You can always change your vote)...

Burgundy...


The coloured stripe in the rims will be made from 60mm wide vinyl, so I can always easily remove it if I get bored with it or fancy a change, but ideally I want to add the stripe before I get them tyred up. I'm too indecisive with which colour to go for, so I thought I'd put a poll together and leave it running until it's time to order it

So what do you guys think?

There's only one logical choice, and the name (rather coincidentally) is the same as the stuff you fuel the car with

a, needs to be much lower
b, needs to be a polished lip
c, need those windows tinted

a. The tyre going on it will be slightly larger in diameter, but they also stick out past the arches, so I can't really go any lower
b, I HATE polished lips on anything other than a completely polished rim
c, Maybe in time, but it's not a priority

Anyway, have you voted?!

I like the red, I think it suits it the best. A blue would be good if it was the same as the car, I think that'd look amazing

That's one reason I chose the Petrol Blue as it's basically a darker shade of the body colour. I never really like it when wheels are colour coded to the body (unless it's black, white or silver)... Besides... Then they'd be the same colour as Dom's!

its such a hard choice though! the blue reminds me of the dodge viper i ALWAYS used to have on gt3, always had 3 spoke advans with a red lip on it

the red reminds me of the ttrs concept artwork audi released ages ago

so both of those colours just dont match up with a honda in my mind!

i actively HATE the yellow because it just doesnt belong there.

petrol blue just sounds homosexual!

see my predicament!? or am i thinking too much into it!?


why not have a grey or white rim?!

Well it's going to say "Accord" on the side, not "Petrol Blue", so that should really matter

I think you may be thinking about it a little too hard

And White, Ivory and Light Grey were my first choices, and I was happy with Ivory... Until I threw a bit of pigment in there

i have decided!


none of the offered options!

your rim colour should match the background colour of the writing on the side!
