So I have a buddy that does powder coating and he'd be willing to hook it up so right now I'm on black oz ultralegerra's my car is a sport red tint coat. So I'm looking to do something a lil different and I was thing of illusion purple with top coat clear, thoughts on how that would look on a maroon car? My brembos are gold so they will show up awesome underneath. Let me know what you think or some other interesting colors that would look good. Here's some pics of the color





This has flake in it

well, its your car, but honestly, whenever I see purple, green, and sometimes orange wheels I think of a some Japanese thing, it just looks really weird/ugly when people do it to cobalts.

I think the black/re you got goin on looks really nice.

but still, if you like it then go for it.

Go for it! Everyone and their mother does black and red. Be different, plus it's not like it permanent.. If you don't like it change them to something different

Ya I was looking other colors and purple I feel like would "more" go with the car lol cuz the srtc has a purplish tone too it. Ya I dunno just thoughts

At first i was thinking about suggesting Yellow, but the Time Attack car had yellow wheels.

Purple will look nice with the gold calipers as you said, not sure how it will look on Maroon, they are both Dark colors, not alot of contrast

Purple is pushing it, but the color does look sick.

Maybe an even darker purple, at night it looks black, but during the day they're clearly purple. Pearlescent purple maybe?

Ya well see there's about a million colors to choose from and I was looking at darker copper and gold colors but then they will clash with my copper brakes

You should do this but with purple brakes. No clash and it would look sick.

Here's another color I've been looking at, lazer rootbeer

You should have made a poll to vote on different ones ha but I really like what TommyP had on his ss I believe the color was anthracite

xbobbitox

Forza 4 lol

That's just a gun metal color pretty much as boring as black

Boostin15

Gunmetal IMO is a lot better looking than purple on a red car
I do like that lazer root beer

xbobbitox

True but I'd keep black over gunmetal. Maybe a textured matte black with flake

I definitely don't like it but it is your car..

I find funky wheel colours only work on black cars and maybe sometimes white cars.

xbobbitox

I know I love the color of my car more then anything but now it's starting to screw me haha

Meh, colored wheels look like garbage IMO. I think the wheels look good and compliment the car well as is. Oh well, your car do what you want


No it did not
