Picked up freshly refured wheels
« on: 14 October 2012, 15:15 »
 :smiley:

Just picked up some new alloys, thanks to Lee C  :smiley:

Now currently they are orange,



 and I have no intention of keeping them this colour so will be dropping them off at

http://www.citypowdercoating.co.uk/#!__gallery1

some point this week I hope, but am undecided on the colour at the mo!

Citypowdercoaters can do almost any colour, but I am torn between some sort of anthracite/matt black/gloss sparkly black/'standard' silver/sparkle silver.

They will be fitted to a reflex silver dub  :smiley:

Do you like the look of black wheels on a sliver car?  If so go black if not a nice standard looking sliver.

I'v seen a few sparkly colours...I'm temtped for one fo those options. Just not sure if my car is 'good enough' for it? If you get me?  :lipsrsealed:

candy red  :evil:

Are you mad? My balls aren't that big! I'd need to follow the colour scheme, and my seats are blue at the mo...possibly a blue? Spray both badges blue?  Calipers blue? Surely not...

Green would look cool I reckon...anyone handy with photo shop!  :grin:
