sounds good, have never seen it done on a saxo but have seen alloys on other cars like this so would be good to see finished pics.

yh i started on them today at work first i sand blasted them back then sprayed high build primer on to them so maybe tomorro if we have not got much on i can start to put a colour on to them what colour you guys think would look good?, i was thinking about doing black and red in the groves

what colours your car? if youre going with black and red wouldnt the red be difficult to see against the black?
could maybe try a brighter colour to stand out against the black bright yellow, white maybe?

well im gona spray the alloy then mask off the alloy except the groves and then sand the groves down and then spray them the colour i want like i said in my last post this is a trile run to see how they turn out so if it goes well ill start doing the other 3 wheels but its all going good atm
