Std Wheels re painted

**DazBlackCSL** · 10-11-2008, 08:12 PM

Just wanted your opinion on a refurb colour , as im now on the rays for winter , cups on the standard rims ... thought id take the opportunity to get them refurbed , and re sprayed slighty different , light grey as opposed to silver, black on black at little to heavy IMHO , and have bronze anyway on the rays.. so ????

Thoughts

This one is sitting about the same ride height as mine also .. love the bonnet up shot , might nick that idea tomorrow !

Love it

The grey really suits the car. Go for it.

I like it, i agree that the black on black is a bit much but aboves looks good.

Yes the Grey does look sweet!

Maybe Gunmetal worth a try?

Wonder what they would look like on SG......Photo shop anyone?

I'd keep them silver, even though the above car looks awesome.

I see pictures of my car there.. haha
I'm glad that you used it as an inspiration.. but mine is not a geniune CSL.. I can only wish for it to be one. I do have some CSL goodies fitted though. The wheels on my car are actually Racmonolite RG4 version 2 in gunmetal. They replicate the CSL wheels look but the curvature of the wheels are a bit different from the geniune CSL ones. You should definitely go for gunmetal though as your car will look absolutely stunning with them!

They look well nice

I wouldnt use your Rays for winter use though - the salt will totally mess up the finish

I am going to have my wheels done Gloss Black i think or Gunmetal not sure yet!
Like you say tho, nice to have a genuine standard set in silver aswell!
