They were gonna be spokes only black, but Rico painted one wheel all black... loved how it looked so decided to go all black.

So chuffed with them! Rico done a great job!

Hey did James mr2 give you the idea Jimlad? Remember he has the toms kitted rev2 with black Volk rims on his car.

I like the black rim look imo it makes your car look 'arder.

[JappyBeast]

Jimlad you rip off!

[pizza boy]

[JappyBeast]

I have style!

He only got his MR2 coz I took him out in mine (god he will love this thread when he reads it).

[ricomr2]

Lmao at the this thread...

I'm gonna stick up for him because he originally wanted to do only the spokes black but changed his mind when he saw one done all black

That didnt happen to be james car?

[ricomr2]

What do you mean mate?

[JappyBeast]

even tho he wanted the rims to be silver you painted the whole thing?

[ricomr2]

Wsa going to do the rims with a bright silver after the black on the spokes had dried and could mask them off but he liked it all black

so who am i to argue :D

[JappyBeast]

think silver rims would set it off!

[ricomr2]

I agree but you have to see it in the metal, looks really jap stylee now

[JappyBeast]

did it look french before? LOL!

I thought his car looked class like how it was at JAE! :(

[ricomr2]

Jim just came in from work... said your a muppet :D

He'll be on soon

[JappyBeast]

Gonna hand over the PC now Rico?...lol!

Ask him about next weekend. We can have a mini meet at Boleside or ScotsView.

[Jimlad]

minimeet will be cool.. dunno what we're both working next week yet.

As for me copying James' car.. nah..... lol.

Just a little similarish... lol.

[Razor_Rage]

sorry mate, don't like it.

what would set it off really would be gunmetal rims imo....

I've got my OE 14" alloys sprayed black for 3 reasons

1) it was cheaper than a new set of wheels.

2) when they get dirty they look anthracite/gun metal

3) It took the attention away from the size.

17's will gone back on in the summer.

Yeah, know what you mean mate. El small or what. Think I'll do mine this weekend. Looks like a right minger with the original 14's on. Urgh!

Roll on summer.

[Richard K]

I wanna do the same with the 17's cos they're a sod keep clean in the summer months, never mind the winter. But they are unscuffed/undamaged and the finish is still great I can't jusitfy stripping perfectly good alloys.

Sorry off topic.

Black alloys give the impression of a no nonsense car.

DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE VARIOUS BRABUS MERCEDES CARS FROM THE EARLY 90'S? WHICH HAD THE BLACK alloys (TOO LAZY TOO GOOGLE FOR IMAGES).

[JappyBeast]

I have a set of black 14's for sale... £600 ono.

Cheers! :P
