Black or Gunmetal?

[phillabaum03]

ok guys, I probably should "care" what ppl think about my car, but i'd like to hear your .02 cents. Im going to paint my 18's, im wondering if I should go with black or gunmetal or like the color of the evos that like slate grey color. I got a place that mixes paint and can put it into a spray can and it looks like real paint. I think gunmetal would look awesome, especially whenever I get a carbon fiber hood. Anyone wanna photoshop my car with gun metal and or black wheels? Or have either on their red 2gs? oh well, here's my car. thanks in advance fellas

If your gonna paint them get them powder coated. Spray paint will just chip. I work for a wheel remanufacturing company called Transwheel. This company has like 4 different locations in the us. I'm in Williamsport, MD. Call them up. Transwheel.com. And gunmetal by the way.

I have flat black wheels on my car, I vote for black.

I would do Black.... but thats my opinion

If you go black do flat black, otherwise gunmetal for sure.

I say gloss black, i did it to one of my 2g's and it came out really good. They were origionally gunmetal and i painted them gloss black. Heres some before and after pics.

In my opinion gunmetal is more matching to red plus as mentioned if you do get a carbon fiber it will definitely match a lot more than black in my opinion

Your car looks great and is so clean, so i dont think you can really go wrong. but i would role with black pouder coated.

 

[BIGMIXX]

think black would look better against the red ... either way i think it is going to look better with the darker rims. good luck with your choice.

Black wheels look like Gumby in combat boots.

heres my friends car.. he just painted his black and i think it looks great so if your not into this im telling you it looks ALOT better in person

btw, i might get made fun of for this but i would vote white!! white looks great on red or blue cars but thats just my opinion -- seems kinda 90's tho

There's nothing better than murdered out rims. Leave the shiney stuff for the sis e's.

haha thanks alot guys, appreciate the advice, I should have made this a pole, but i'd say more are going with gun metal. I have a 95 dodge durango copper gst and the wheels on it are stock 2g gst wheels painted black but that color goes amazing with black. Im thinking i might go gun metal. Anyone have the paint code from the evo9 I believe? I was thinking of going with that color. Sound good?
thanks again fellas, keep it coming
