Re: North East Chapter Members
I was hopeing that one of you guys could help me.
I'm thinking of painting my wheels gunmetal, but I don't want to do it and find that it looks shite.
Can some one help me by doing a photochop on this pic to show me what it will look like. wink.gif
Thanks. 8)
EDIT
Are these pics better?

Re: Exhaust questions..
it's simple. all you have to do is not wash your rims for 3 weeks.
i had mine painted gunmetal and they looked like shiite. lemme tell you, they look cleaner and nicer brighter. if you paint them without a glossy temperament then your rims will catch engine grease easier. save yourself some thought--i used to think the stock rims were hell sexy, but was uncomfortable that they were a little bit small. i also want my discs to show. get some new rims. they're easier to clean. tongue.gif

Re: Gauge Group Buy GREAT DEAL from Splitfire!!!!
Why don't you look into the Rota wheels, they're relatively light weight, not that expensive and have plenty of them in black. They might have some in gunmetal..they offer a dump load of different options. Also, I believe they're made in Philipines, closer to OZ.

Re: Help with rims
Yeah maybe, It's a bit hard to tell from pics.
I going for the stealth look myself with painted rims & lights like java's), tinted widows, tails & fogs.

Re: Official Bush vs. Kerry Thread
I think my wheels look GREAT in black or gunmetal. They are nice and light too.
