My wheels are needing a bit of a refurb as I've scuffed them up a bit
Also theres loads of cars in my area appearing with white sri's so it's time for a colour change I think!




I've been thinking of doing them star silver again, but I also quite fond of gunmetal type colours, but not sure it would go well with the blue?
Any pics that may help appreciated, and if anyone has advice on tidying up scuff marks do tell - I take it I can use filler?

cheers fella, god knows if halfrauds will stock that!
The white does work well when they're clean, but soon as they're dirty they looking minging, and it's becoming too popular around here... copycats

That would be far too much blue imo.

A nice dark grey would go well against the blue.

Fair enough mate

Here's my rough artist's impression:



Not quite how I wanted to get it, but it's meant to show the wheels grey and the trim bits a darker grey.

Edit - Another one with everything roughly the same colour.

I quite like that dave, I had thought about going over the colour coding because I hate it personally if I did it that sorta colour with a shine to it? Hmmm you've got me thinking now!

It wasn't meant to come out as matted as that Don't know how to get it glossy again. I know it can be done, but don't know how

A nice dark grey would be very nice imo
