What colour alloys

[tomhollo18]

I am getting a set of vts wheels in Grey for my silver vtr and I'm not sure if I should leave them that colour or paint them blue any opinions

[lakeyy]

be different and choose a wild colour imho..

[tomhollo18]

What sort of colour coz I was thinking about a silver and blue theme

[lakeyy]

what silver car and blue wheels, badges, mirror caps etc?

[tomhollo18]

Well I was thinking of blue mirror caps and wheels and just some interior blue bits like centre console and air vents that sort of thing

[Xplodee]

Light blue wheels would look pretty good.

Go mad Ford Focus Orange mate.

[lakeyy]

depends what floats your boat mate, make it yours! i still want a black car and go for the whole matte black theme :y:

[Daz_Kez]

You going to go for a satin or a gloss finish? An a rough idea of the shade of blue you want would help people decide..

But as said its your car! Think more towards your taste rather than others..
If you like it that's what matters! :-)

[tomhollo18]

Gloss finish and it's sort of similar to the blue on the motorway road signs but a bit lighter

Ah so a relatively bright blue!
Kind of the middle of the shade scale, will be different thats for sure..
Would be nice if someone could do a decent shop.

[tomhollo18]

Yeah at the moment the wheels I'm getting have just been refurbed and painted in grey so I will see what they look like on the car but I'm proba going to end up spraying them

I was considering going blue with mine.. was literally so close to doing it, then chickened out and went gloss black.. i think bright colours look good, but the more you look at it the less you like it. would get on my tits having to clean them everyday aswell.

Does anyone know where I can get blue high temperature paint and can I use normal primer and lacquer or does it have to be high temp aswell

[Daz_Kez]

Enamel paint is usually good enough if you can get blue enamel somewhere!
As for normal paint and high temp lacquer, a friend of mine did this and the normal paint underneath would get soft and bubble! Kind of sucked :-/

I would either go white or go polished :)

[tomhollo18]

Yellow does look good to be fair and how much is your saxo lowered?

[iFurio]

Yellow does look good to be fair and how much is your saxo lowered?

Well its meant to be 40mm but my friend has his lowered 40mm and his looks alot lower. Keep in mind this was a test that me and my brother done and the car has lots of weights in the back, wanted to get a rough idea on how it would look lower :y:

This is a pic without the weights. Looks similar to the other pic but yeah when you look properly its not as low

[tomhollo18]

Yeah it does look a bit higher and I'm getting mine lowered 35 mm in a couple weeks I would go lower but my girlfriend lives on a private road and the speed humps and deadly lol
