I finally got ahold of some 2gb 5 spoke wheels and cleaned and sanded them for a smooth surface. I am undecided wether i should paint the whole rim gold or just paint the star gold and leave the rest silver ? I marked a red line where if i were to paint it gold with the silver lip, where the gold would end. It will be just the star in gold. Any opinions will help clear up my undecided mind hehe :sneaky:
Thanks.

This is how my rim will look if painted all gold. It's my friend's rim that we painted and test fitted on mine to help me decide. What you guys think ?

I also found a rockin good deal on tires. Toyo proxes 4 tires w-rated for $65 each :D:rocks:
Oh yeah im set for my wheels :thumb:
 
Not feeling the gunmetal. The bronze is pimp, or you could do something a little more custom.
 
Suzukiridr it looks nice but considering my car is black i wanted a little more brightness on the wheel side, i was getting bored of too black LOL. Well here is a pic i took yesterday of my rims i just painted.

Here is a couple of pictures of what my car looks like with the stock gold wheels. I know mine is a 1g but you get the idea of what the colors will look like together.

You should take out the turbo intercooler, all wheel drive and 16 valve stickers on your laser to make it a real sleeper so people would never know what's about to hit them :sneaky:

I'm going to be painting the whole car in the near future so they won't be on after that. Maybe I should get some 1.8l stickers.:D
 
Hahaha i don't think they make them but if you can customize it go for it :sneaky:
