Poll: Best Color BBK with Sparkling Graphite?

SneakyDeeky · 06-15-2014, 07:13 PM

Let me know what you guys think. I can't make up my mind, but if I pull the trigger it'll be a StopTech kit and probably cross-drilled cuz I love the look.
Here's a few pics to help you (and me) decide...

RED WITH BLACK LETTERING

Comments / Disclaimers:
- I know that the silver BBK is on a SpaceGray
- I know that Darren "Creaminz" car is not SGM, but repainted Porsche GT3 RS Black/Grey
- My main concern with choosing Yellow, Orange, or even Red is that in order for the color to pop, it's best highlighted by black wheels, but I really love the contrast of my hyper silver Advan RS against the SGM paint.

Fun dilemma I thought you guys would enjoy sharing with me.

My car to imagine with BBK...

Oh, and I found a site that makes wheel stickers in custom colors if I wanted to add a subtle touch to the wheels. Maybe black text with a red or yellow outline around the "RS?"

I may be a little bias....

But, here are my two set ups I've had.

Blindside_137 · 06-15-2014, 09:08 PM

Mint green or orange is what i would do on a gray car

Alen E90 · 06-15-2014, 09:22 PM

Sneaky, IMO silver Stoptech BBK's would look sick on your SGM and also white would look really cool as well.

J-Spec Dan · 06-15-2014, 09:33 PM

orange to offset your sgm. now buy them!

P Casey · 06-15-2014, 10:15 PM

Red on the first pic wins.

koches · 06-15-2014, 10:18 PM

Stick with Black Sneaky. Your set up now looks so good. I agree, I love my Hyper Silver rims against the SGM too!

330xtrai · 06-15-2014, 11:29 PM

I voted for red with black lettering. if you get red lug nuts and maybe red sticker for your wheels it'll look sick. you can get full red lugs or mcgard ones that are silver with a red tip looks pretty good like this. They are the same as the bbs ones but without the bbs sign

I don't have an upgraded setup, but I have orange on my sparkling graphite

Blaster400 · 06-20-2014, 10:19 AM

I vote for red it is hard to beat this look with SGM. White letters will pop more and black letters will look slightly more aggressive.

gtabfknkdnme · 06-20-2014, 11:29 AM

yellow. google gray lamborghini, there are a bunch of pictures of gray lambos with yellow brakes and they look great

JStang · 06-20-2014, 11:55 AM

That first car looks amazing!

Bimmer_403 · 06-20-2014, 12:36 PM

Definitely love the yellow as not a lot of people go with it. It also depends on your wheel color as well.

SGe92is · 06-21-2014, 03:23 PM

Anthracite or color matched IMO, would work better with the silver wheels.

dreme · 06-21-2014, 05:08 PM

lamborghini orange.

HouseN54 · 06-21-2014, 08:05 PM

I went orange on my car and love it, many of my friends had their doupts[IMG]

ihc95 · 06-21-2014, 08:05 PM

I would do something different and go for orange. If you're spending all that money, make it pop!
