Help me out here guy´s! What should I do with my wheels???
I´m gonna send my wheels away for new paint and fresch-up.
I´m wery in for bronzing them a little, but what does you guys think, I tried to bronze it thru the photoshop. Note: I also fit in white glasses in the bumper and bronzing the windows. Well guys am I a complete idiot if I do these three things?? Help me out here, I need to here if it´s only me who had snowing in on it, i´m really confused at these moment my wheels go for painting in a few weeks.  /Jocke

I'm accused of having no understanding of car and motorcycle aesthetics so take my view with a pinch of salt.
I think your car would look good with white colour coded wheels. Let the flaming and rice attacks begin!

John, thats a little over the top!! how about that 914 we talked about?
Jocke, I think the bronze look is good, but Isabos idea, white wheels and bronze windows would be cool (me thinks)

Nice wheels; who makes them & what sizes are they? Also, what size tires are you running? Is that a turbo body?

The lower pic in your first post gets my vote... I'm a big fan of the Cup-1 wheels, personally.

Jocke I am thinking black w/ polished lips would be the best for your car... just for what it is worth/

Jocke,
All of the bronzed wheels I have seen look dirty all the time. I would do the silver finish again. The silver finishlooks great clean. |
