bronze, gold, gunmetal gst rims?

mistagst · 11-12-2009, 06:45 AM

ok so the chrome on my gst rims are peeling off and i plan on sanding it off soon (those rims have my winter tires on them) but i cant seem to make a choice on what color i want them. i dont want black because that is what my car is and its just not me. the rims i have on it now are gunmetal and i love how they look on a black car. ive seen someone with gold on a red dsm and they look awsome. i just cant make up my mind

any pics or suggestions would be awsome thanks.

bronze

it looks great on black and so does gold..

I dont think gunmetal looks as good on black..
here is gunmetal.

Gold or Bronze is the way to go imo.

GsXtC21 · 11-12-2009, 06:01 PM

A little persuasion

sik4g63 · 11-12-2009, 07:36 PM

I say bronze or bronze w/polished lip.

buryurfear14 · 11-13-2009, 05:36 AM

NOOO polished lip, there are VERY few applications where that actually looks good. It looked good when it first came around, now it just looks generic IMO.

I like the bbs gold rims. Those are hot and would look good on a black dsm. That what i'll be putting on mine when i get them.

the bronze on the red gst looks the tits!!

1sttimedsmr · 11-15-2009, 09:04 PM

I painted mine bronze and red calipers and I think they look great even though my car paint is not. A little dirty.

those look awsome!!!

ok so i peeled as much of the cracked chrome off and sanded it smooth. i wanted to make the rims with the chrome lip but that was also peeling so i sanded that heres some pics

Fabian · 11-17-2009, 11:01 AM

I definitely say gunmetal. I have the spokes on my wheels painted gunmetal with the red anodized lip. People tell me they love my rims all the damn time. Seriously gets the most attention on my car.

mistagst · 11-17-2009, 02:48 PM

optimus primed and ready for gold!! primed with 3 medium coats of Dupli-color primer
