Default I want TE37s but instead...

So I want some white TE37s, but hey its all just dreams coz I have this thing called a wife and a life and things like that.

So instead I am contemplating painting my SI rims white to colour match the car.

Anyone good with the photochop wanna do me a favour and make my wheels white.

The two pics here are how the car was about 2months ago, since then the car has been lowered so if you want you can lower my car in your photochopping.

Also now has a lip or two.

Thanks to anyone

Exactly, a lot of people would pay decent money for those wheels the way they are. Leave them the way they are.

gee thanks everyone. I am not painting them, I am CONCIDERING painting them. Hence the reason I want to see what it would look like.

And no, noone will be paying good money for these SI wheels, they were involved in a mean roll-over accident and are pretty badly damaged

So photochop it for me and prove the point that I should leave em.

I am willing to go with ROTA grids, I am not opposed to being an imitator. But alas, I cannot afford even grids.

Sheesh, wife gives you a car, you "waste" a bunch of money taking out a perfectly good engine to put in a better one and the wife doesn't let you spend money on wheels

So yeah, its either silver SIs, or I paint em.

***** whippin' is gettin bad these days.


sell the si's, buy rota grids. You'll spend $100-200 on the "upgrade" depending what tires you get. not a big deal.

its like I'm talkin to myself.

The wheels cannot be sold, they are damaged from a roll-over. Noone but a moron will buy them.

So anyone wanna buy my SI rims? $36bajillion dollarions.

I'll pay the shipping

stock white ek's are so hard to find nowaday's. post up a thread and see if anyone is willing to trade your si's for some rota grid's. good luck ive never seen white si's painted. i sure would like to see them painted with the H red.

most people that can afford to be married can afford rotas. When i was in high school i could afford rotas w/tires and my *** was broke.
