[teh DIRT]

i think gold would look hot. gunmetal is cool too though

[Rey The Great]

ill go with black..gunmetal is kinda like a blackish look but i personally like black.but gunmetal looks good tho

[XxaltezzaxX]

Thats not bad looking I like it

[AMF Racing]

not much of a gold fan on silver, and i like the way they are, but the finish is coming off. prob go with gunmetal i guess......

[jc8889]

gold on a silver car is the bomb!

[Kerplunk105]

I'd like to see it in gold as well. The gunmetal is meh IMHO.

[AMF Racing]

gold on a silver car is the bomb!

meh to each his own i guess.

[Kerplunk105]

I personally love the way it looked before/currently.... :)

[james_ls]

I like how it looks now.

I honestly don't really like your wheels though...too basic...need something to set it off.

me too, but the silver is starting to come off, i figured i'd try somethin new. not sure yet. i just went down and sprayed my spare rim gunmetal, when its nice out i'll throw it on and see how i like it.

i didnt want anything to flashy with this car.

[StealthTC]

Bronze...

[S4toSTI]

I think it looks cool, looks like it should have came that way... how about bronze?

[AMF Racing]

i dont like bronze/gold on silver cars. its ok on darker colors. just my taste i guess.

[freebmx444]

pink!

[Blkmax]

i like the look of the gunmetal, good luck

[AMF Racing]

pink!

or blue and green i hear that is the new hotness gay!!

[twistedlanes]

ooh how about a black chrome, still dark and not flashy but it will have both of the colors your looking for.
the first is basic Black CHrome

this one is more of the flashy look in the back you can see how good it looks when the light isn't on it all the way

http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u175/Twistedlanes/black_chrome_19_10_002-1.jpg

okay they are a little bigger now

[CHR!S]

gunmetal, duh!

btw who did that amazing photoshop?

[AMF Racing]

i dont think i can get those colors with spray paint, lol.

some dumb kid did that photoshop, lol

[Pocket_Rocket]

Dave,

I know someone that does chrome smoke.. I did my SRT-4 wheels. He does a nice job. Hit me up if you want the info. He has a mobil unit.

[twistedlanes]

i dont think i can get those colors with spray paint, lol.

some dumb kid did that photoshop, lol

ahhh but you like it. yeah I didn't know you were using spray paint. what about chrome paint, with a smoke clear coat. theoretically it sounds good maybe you can try it.

[grimm]

tan or kahki :)

[Crzyguy972]

dont do it

[Silverfc88]

Recoated silver or gunmetal for hte FTW!

[S4toSTI]

How about PINK.

[ToyotaTat]

ithink it looks great, do it

[Dave]

I know i voted for darker gunmetal, but that black chrome looked pretty cool

[AMF Racing]

the only reason i am doing spray paint over powder coating right now is cause i dont want to buy new tires. the tires i have on now are brand new, and if i was going to take them off they would be replaced with azenis. if the rattle can job turns out bad i will just give them to chuck to powder coat w/e color i want. i painted one of the rims, and once it stops being crappy out i will throw it on and take some pics. right now i am leaning towards the gunmetal, but i have the original silver color too.

i like it, next warm day i will paint all four of my good wheels :)

[Kerplunk105]

I like it!

[Snoozie]

Yea it looks good! And that is just spray paint?

[XxaltezzaxX]

Good stuff, now do them all.

[OBEEWON]

Navy Blue would look hot. According to fashion trend deep blue is the new black, so deep it looks black from a far, but when you get closer its clearly blue.

[jspek]

yes deep blue! finally someone who agrees with me around here. lol.

[AMF Racing]

yeah its dupli-color wheel paint/wheel clear coating.....i am waiting for it to get into at least the 60's before i prep/prime/paint/clear my actual rims that will go on the car. but i def like the way it looks, the center cap silver and the silver lugs make it look nice....

[AMF Racing]

here's the paint.....got a few different colors

[zerioustt]

looks good man...i didnt like the photochop. def looks hot in the pic

[AMF Racing]

looks good man...i didnt like the photochop. def looks hot in the pic

yeah thats why i quickly sprayed my spare rim, think it looks good too. the lugs and center cap bring it all together i think...I am debating what color to do my calipers now....

[zerioustt]

silver lugs and cap def are hot. maybe a red or silver for the calipers.

[AMF Racing]

i'm thinkin red krinkle to match my valve cover....

[Dave]

almost exactly what i said!

[jdm free]

paint them gunmetal, the one wheel u did looks good so do the rest

[AMF Racing]

yeah next warm day its on like donkey kong. i gotta figure out a way to get all my wheels off at the same time, donut, extra rim and two jackstands i guess....

[nopistons94]

go buy 2 more jack stands and be safe with it

[AMF Racing]

i feel safer having the car only on two jackstands.....

[streetAssasin96]

let me know how that paint works out, because i was thinkin about getting my rims powder coated, but f that if this dupli-color stuff works out. rim looks good BTW

yeah iw as gonna get mine coated too, but its a pain in the ass to take the tires off, have no rims for like over a week. the paint should turn out fine as long as you prep it well, and take your time. i have painted a lot of things and had it turn out great. a lot of people never use primer which is the KEY to a good paint job on any surface....
