Rim Colour

[hemi_fan]

Hello, Im getting some used tires for my mustang before I can certify it, and before I do, im refurbishing the rims. Im sanding the oxidation off and painting them. I have already bought some silver, gunmetal, and clearcoat paints for them. My plan was to make the rim silver, with gunmetal inlays and then clearcoat them. I think it would look pretty decent until I can find some cheap Cobra replicas. I was wondering about other colour combinations or patterns to put on the rim. if you have any suggestions, please feel free to make them. Heres a link to a picture of the rim, so you can photoshop it if you have some free time. PS; my car is black, so things like bright yellow, or pure black would be out of the question. thanks!

I would go with either the gunmetal grey for the whole rim or just make them a darker shade of silver. Or another option would be to make them gun metal grey with a silver lip.

Gotta be gunmetal spokes with polished rim. Just like mine! (that polished rim does pickle for a past time tho! :cry: )

I think i am going to go silver outer ring, silver spokes, silver inner-ring/hub cap, and gunmetal inbetween all of the 16 spokes... is that what you mean? or even less silver than that?

[coombsie66]

I recon gunmetal all the spokes, and the inner, and hub cap, then silver the outer rim and the bits inbetween the spokes where they meet the rim.
