new rims, new rim color...

auto0utcast · 05-12-2008, 01:04 PM

sooo my bbs' were charcoal grey metallic... then i got these OZ Superleggera's that were an anthracite grey and i got tired of the grey rim deal so i figured its time for a change... this is what 12 hours, 6 coats of paint/clear, 2 broken scissor jacks (dont ask), and alot of caffeine will get you.
comments welcome.

I like it. Maybe do the Brembos a different color too so that you don't have the gold clashing with the pink and the gray of the car.

holy brightness batman.

Ballsy move . . . I was really thinking about painting my Rota winter setup in PINK. I only take the car out when it snows in the winter and I was thinking PINK would be sweet.

I like it but it might be a negative attention getter after a bit.

How long 'till you get bored with this livery....

well, i figure after 1 basecoat of silver metallic, 2 coats of fluorescent pink, and 3 coats of clear, these should last me a while... there is one special final touch to come on them though. they will be receiving a black "time attack" style pinstripe on the inner portion of the lip within the next week or so. that should really set it off.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit

Sorry man, but I think that looks completely hideous.
