Car and Wheels Colour Combinations
« on: 01 June 2013, 10:04 »
I have a CSG MK6 GTI and really want something a bit different in regards to wheels and trim colour.

I have just had a little play in PhotoShop ( please dont hate - im no pro yet)

Some have wheels changed and some have front stripes and black badge. Also, Not saying it will be Monza in these colour, just the best shot i could find of a CSG car

Some look ok, some look Euro as f*ck: and opinion welcome:

think I prefer the original Monza colour with that body colour to those you have pictured.
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.

Liking the first picture, always been a fan of the cor-ten steel/anodized copper colours on black cars!  :smiley:

The first one without a doubt.  With matt black badge though.  Still think bronze stripes would look good too  :cool:

Please don't do it to your Monza's! :'(  I quite like the other picture you posted with the gold Rotiforms on, i think that would be the way i'd go although i'm not sure if rotiforms have been done to death?? ???

No it wouldnt be done on Monza, thats just the best picture i could fine for colour scheming it.....

I have no idea what alloys i want yet.....Think bronze / Sunken treasure will suit with right alloys?

Rotis and 3dsm overdone, squared are the new fad, think a Motorsport style rim would look great in bronze, I was tempted to get my TSWs in bronze
