briaan65 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I'm probably going to shoot myself in the foot here,but, I've now got a set of five bottle top alloys (e30 BMW) which I've amassed from ebay, I bought up spare wheels so they're all in really nice condition.I have a soft blue Loop and I'm thinking of going a bit different.I've looked on line for inspiration but I've not seen any with wheels other than silver.Have any of you guys got any other colour on your soft blue Lupo ?Bri.

Koop Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 White would be a nice contrast. And sporty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty_82 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 There are hundreds of cars out there that while they may not be soft blue they are blue, and alot of them have weird colour wheels on. So my point being, dont always look for the exact car in the same colour, inspiration comes from places where you least expect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So my point being, dont always look for the exact car in the same colour, inspiration comes from places where you least expect it.you're right I know I'm laying myself open to a bit of mick taking, I did think that I may get one done like a proper bottle top, I know a few graphic designers who are handy with an airbrush.White would be a nice contrast. And sporty white is good, I was thinking also black but I'm in two minds, see my post above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
