Post by: waqas_RX7 on March 17, 2010, 09:03:30 PM
Hi Guys/Girls,

My wheels are in need of a REFURB, they are currently, silver lip with black centres.

Would anyone kindly black out my wheels including having the lip black aswell on PHOTOSHOP, i am really crap with PHOTOSHOP.

Need a much better pic to work from bud! full on side shot and better quality would help!
Personally I wouldn\'t go black throughout - they\'ll be lost, especially with a dark car.....

Each to their own though..... ;)

you are talking 100% black wheels , not sure if it would be too much to be honest

are you thinking matt black or shiney black ?

i have to admit - id be tempted to paint them all black and then some sort of stripe around them :D

Yeah i mean 100% black wheels :mmmm most probably going to be gloss black (which has a fair shine to it)

Like you say, i was thinking of getting a thin stripe around the wheels :Giggle

The colours that are available from the refurb place are GUNMETAL, SILVER or GLOSS BLACK. Is a tricky one :confused:
