to be fare im getting sick of seeing black wheels, my new ones iv just bought im getting done i nice light bright sparkle silver

Preferred silver too..

I've had my car 2 weeks and have curbed two wheels already. One was already scuffed so I have one decent one left!!

I've been contemplating completely different wheels or refurb but think if I was to refurb I'd actually keep the same colour. Also considering the dark graphite like on the Audi S-lines and BMW M-sports.

Maybe go for something different?

When i had my Mk4 Golf, I had a custom colour made and it looked f***ing brilliant!

little bit to glitz and glamour for me that but on a custom job bet it looks awsome,
reminds me years and years ago i watched a guy use metal flake on an old mini pickup on the roof, he must have put 20 coat of lacour on that thing and it was so deep you could actualy see the flakes standing up, awsome job in the 80s when custom jobs were done in folks garages at home haha
always makes me chuckle when i see jurasic park with that bug in the cystal, it was like his roof haha

That picture was taken on a really sunny day, up close so just so i could show off the flakes lol
It wasnt over the top tho, from a few metres away it looked like a dark blue/grey which when hit by light sparkled, looked really nice, i miss it lol
