hi
i was thinking of changing the colour of my rims.from gold to anthracite, can i do this without buying new ones?

if you have done this can you let me know how and what paint you used?

This is my pride and joy now:


I think you will agree that anthracite would look better?

Or even some white compomotive??

 

Dont go white, what if it snows? you wont be able to find your car

Seriously, I think you should leave them gold, theres nothing I like more than a white newage with gold rims still, they are just so nice.

 

The gold looks good against the white if you ask me!

 

 

Gorgeous looking machine mate!!!!!!!!

 

I have Anthrocite 17" STI Wheels & they look great. I know I'm not very helpful, dont know how you change them however, I do know where you can get a brand new set for £399?

I f that helps et me know & I can let you have info.

Kind regards.

Thanks mate

it is still on the water, due in early Jan. I cant wait!!!!

 

cheers mate

Keep the gold but go for 18 inch Speedline Turinis and a STI front splitter and the car will look awesome!

 

Definitely go anthracite. Get them powdercoated and they will look the nuts. Gold wheels belong on only one car - a Clio Williams. You've already on the right lines getting a white car - dark wheels are where it's at.

 

Agree with the above, there's a few places in South Wales that will Powdercoat the lot for c£200 all in.

I'm going to be getting mine done soon too

 

will look much better

 

Thank you all for the advice/opinions,

Merry Christmas and a FantaSTIc New Year!

Perhaps we can get a GB going?

 

I have to disagree there, white on white is 'da bomb' period !!

Heres proof. This is JDM Addicts car from NASIOC.com

Its works rather well.

 

That looks really nice IMO, and it would be bird shi* proof, unless it dribbled down the window

Looks very tidy
