penry Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Looks like a darker red so will probably look sweet! You could keep the triangle insert bits silver for a bit of contrast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I was going to say: If you need to ask 'us' you're not that sure yourself, so I'd get a photoshop done.Too late for that though, but from the colour of that wheel, I'd say do it. Though, maybe a tad darker shade IMO.Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Masking the cut-outs on Bathursts is a bitch to do.Really hard to tell when they're not on a car, you'll have to try them on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_M Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) Looks like a pinky red to me, but that couple be the picture.If it is the flame/blood red then it has potential, but not for me Edited April 10, 2008 by mike_m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Paint lasts ok as long as you clean them.My yellow ones have started to get pitted, but I did a really quick paintjob, (for the same reason as you really, didn't want to spend ages sanding and painting to find they looked rubbish) and they've been on all winter without being cleaned really.

Jazz-Loop Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Keep them red it looks awesome! Goes with the grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I think they look mint! The colour of them is really nice, one final thing i would do is space them out 10mm-20mm though, they look lost in those rear arches from that angle.

Adam Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I think the silver looks good, but it may well look better if you do the centres red aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAZZAJOE Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) where do u get the spacrs?complete with longer bolts?not sure where to get spacers and bolts from. but i think they look super cool on the car.i reckon red centres will look the business Edited April 10, 2008 by HAZZAJOE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Nyom nyom - they look hot. Need the centres to be red too though IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 You could try Venom or places like that, i bought mine from the for sale section on here. They bolt to the hub with the bolts supplied and then the wheels bolt to the spacer with your current bolts, that is for the 20mm spacer anyway, i think with a 10mm you will just get longer bolts.
