Wheel colour?

Post by Lukas1 » Sat Mar 31, 2012 4:58 pm

OK well I haven't put a project log or pics of my car up yet due to time issues with work but since I have the day off today I have started to refurb my wheels as they are in a poor state, so which colour does everyone think is best?

I was either going for Gloss Black, Dark Purple, ST Asbo Orange or Indigo Blue (Same as 106 GTI).

Also thought about Sepang bronze as well?

Here is the pic of the car and the wheels:

Centre caps will be staying black :)

Lol Orange was an odd choice, I'm thinking the black as I do have a couple cans lying around anyways and it's not that much of a pain to clean.

And cheers Mercutio :) It does need a bit of cosmetic love though!

never seen black montegi's so couldn't say but have seen black on a silver gen 5 and i didn't suit it (but that may have been the style of wheels) i like it when something else on the car backs up the wheel colour so a black carbon bonnet and boot/spolier with black wheels would look the nuts ;)

Yeah I like your thinking Dbo, probably go Black Spoiler and that's it, but the black wheels and then slammed to the deck (reasonably) will look pretty good, as I have already begun spraying black lol. Done one of my skirts as well :)
