I am not sure if it is a good idea to change the color of my rims to matt black as my car color is silver, I would like to hear your suggestions
should i keep them the way they are?
should i get them matt black including the lip and then adding a color red or yellow lip??
should i get them matt black but leave the chrome lip as it is?
do you guys have any advise for the next mod?

First thing is first, pick one body color and go with it. That 2 tone is not working.

If your set on changing the color, paint them the same color as your car. Now there's something you dont see every day...

I think that's probably what he meant - most since the black sploosh on the hood is nauseating and silly looking.

But, if you like it, then certainly keep it and love it. That's all that matters. GL

thank you for your replies, any more idea

Black wheels, a drop and some spacers in the rear would work with the 2 tone thing your doing here

i agree with u 100%, i dropped the car with eibach springs but i am still not happy with the drop!!
for the spacers, i am thinking 10mm i heard more than 10mm will rub, what do u think? my rear wheel is 9.5 with 265 tires.

[Gavin@MMW]

Whats the offset of the rear rims? from the pics id say et35, so a 10mm spacer to et25 would work. If you go lower, you might need a fender roll out back

The wheel color is fine. Change the bonnet and roof back to original paint. The black is ugly.

[naif-2]

how many ppl think that my hood/ bonnet color is ugly ? i am getting mixed responses, i had so many compliments from another forum!!! i am now thinking of getting rid of it, should i or shouldn't !!
have you guys seen this

Iagree

[MacR6]

Lose the matte hood and that bumper. The roof is nice.

Dark blue would look sweet. Like a midnight blue, almost black.

[Babydragon]

Black has been done over and over. It's nice but, but played out.

Naif-2: I like what you are trying to do here, Its a little different, but it kinda flows good. This is my suggestion- definately take the matte off of the front bumper and the hood...ive seen this out here and it makes the car look weird from a distance, either paint the hood gloss black or do a a cf hood with scoops painted or scoops exposed in CF.....then to really do the two tone (because it is ok....I would paint the A and B pillars black to draw a clear like between the top and bottom of the car. Lasty, I would not change the color of the wheels to black....ghey....match-paint the wheels to the color of your car to subdue the shine a little bit. That would be hot!!!!!!! Oh yeah, do a cf CSL styled trunch to complete the look, keep it black or cf on top, then exactly at the edge of the spoiler lipp, all painted from there down...
