I usually hate threads like this but wanted some input. My ITR came with some backyard painted dark grey JDM 16's (below- yes, car has been destickered!).



They are chipping badly and I plan to have them resprayed. I sort of like the dark color but have been debating on if I want to go with Solaris Silver, Dark Grey again, or possibly even Bronze.

Has anyone ever seen bronze painted JDM's? A buddy did these photoshops for me. Any input appreciated.

(Not my original pic, not sure of photographer)

OEM silver (Solaris Silver - closest OEM color)


Dark Bronze


Dark Grey

 

I like the stock gm.

Wasnt your car getting a full re-spray? Any after pics?

 

dark grey

 

It will get a respray at some point but the engine is getting rebuilt first.

 

I like the stock GM color the best out of those, but CW still takes the cake.

thats what i keep telling him....

 

CW on ?BP is a no-go

 

Get them powdercoated for $100 or so, way better than rattle-canning them. Dark grey looks the best IMO.

Whaaat? I've gotten OEM wheels powdercoated for about $25 a wheel, besides the dismounting charges. Shop around a little bit.
