right i want to get my willy wheels refurbed in a different colour to gold for a change.

i was thinking black with an orange or red lip, but i don't know if i want matt black or gloss black.

any ideas/opinions on this or any other colour suggestions (not gold again or silver)
8) :D

cheers.

I wouldn't go Gloss as it will look like you have dont it yourself with some hammerite! i'd go down the 'satin' route, gives a nice matt style effect but still having some reflective properties to make them look new and spanking! i liked the ones that were done in a gun metal grey, or the same colour i did my tur-bines in, grigio titanio metallic... luuuuuurvelly

I quite like the gloss look, but I'd go anthracite, not black, as then the tyres dont stand out as much.

Something like this?

Satin is wrong for wheels IMO

Trim parts only

Looks good I reckon. I had satin wheels on my old white one and they suited it a lot more than gloss ones!

i posted this thread up on cliosport, they're all gay. "they look best as standard" has come up three times already, which i understand and agree, but i just fancy a change. they're all standard car fanatics on there, i don't know why i bothered joining! :roll:

Willy lovers first pic = nice 8) love the finish.

Big fan of anthracite though.

I had the wheels on my other car powdercoated gloss black a month or so ago.

If done right it won't look like a hammerite effort so i'd say go for it.

Only downside is the tyres need tyre shine on them otherwise it look cheap...

How about matt black with day glow orange lip. I think the contrast between the to colours would stand out to maximium effect :)

Live in York now and don't get up home that often maybe the odd shopping trip to the Boro or to see my cousin in Redca! York is lovely but do miss Teesside! :? Mad hey!

Alloys - Although I do like anthracite - I think your orginal black with a red lip is a good choice. Orange always reminds me of my school PE strip!

thats the s**t right thurrrrrrrrr

These would look cool if you could photoshop a yellow stripe on the inner lip, not the diamond cut part, but just the inner lip prior to the spokes etc.... the yellow protective tape goes really well and gave me the 'motorsport' style idea, can anyone do it?
