Default CLEANED and seeking wheel colour ideas

Ive gone from badges to no badges to badges to no badges

Red mudflaps that ive soon got fed up with and will be changing to black

Im happy with how it looks now though and might add a front splitter and a couple of wing stiffies to finish it off.

Im not convinced the wheel colour does the car justice

Opinions please

GOLD ?...... BLACK ?.... ANTHRACITE ?.... BRONZE ?











If any photoshop guru's can help with some colours on the first or third picture it would be a great help.

A contrasting colour would be good. So Gold, Bronze, Orange, Lime Green, etc

But Bronze would look cool

Not the best picture but it'll give you an idea of some black on black - well carbon wrapped . Probably going gold in the summer though.

How much does the carbon dipping cost and how does the finish stand up ?

I think if I were to choose gold it would be widetrack STI alloy shade rather than the brighter turini gold

Had the same dalai lama last year on my black blob, bronze 2 shades, red 2 shades, the graphite they started out as and black. never ggot on with any of them, then bought a set of STI gold winter wheels with tyres and bunged them on for the winter.

Never looked better.

No and I don't blame you, but have seen lime green on a black wagon and it did look good
I have burnt orange against my silver car and tbh there not great but they don't look too bad. The colour of mine is Le Mans Sunset which is the Nissan 350/370Z burnt orange.
