thinking of changing the color of my rims!!
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.

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

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...
