Riko, is that a miltek system on your car?
i like the idea of something different, red, orange. blue. would def be like marmite but it would be something different.

Yeah it is dubz, cat-back at the mo, but planning for a turbo-back come next year, possibly blueflame?
You can get away with pretty much any colour having a black car and it's not like white was exactly subtle, so i reckon go all out with orange or something! Or hows about a fairly deep shade of blue with white motorcycle tape around the lip??

a diff colour centre with polished lip is in the euro scene at mo, does work a treat imo, think all one colour would stil be quite motorsporty look.

a mate of mine has a mk3 vr6 golf with orange centres,polished lip on a dark green car and it looks the nuts, gets loads of attention. ill try and dig a pic up.

its not hard but aint easy, really time consuming... start off rubbing them down with a coarse grit paper or if your lucky enough to have access to a sand/bead blaster take the paint off with that... start using say 80 grit then down to a 120 then 180....... suga soap them down rinse off and allow to dry... get some high build primer usually yellow in colour..apply that as it states on the tin...once all dried get a very fine wet and dry paper.. 1200 or similar and take out any imperfections... again rinse off and allow to dry, then your down to your colour choice...apply again as they state on tin..let the paint cure for a couple of days and get some laqquer on there for extra protection, again allow 2-3 days for them to be solid

What Wheels are these ?
I think they would look well smart in Black on a Silver Beeza
