Need some wheel color options!

scotty_miller · 01-23-2014, 06:31 PM

Hey guys I'm from the other forums but this board is awesome. I posted over there and no one has been a help and wanted your guys options or opinions. Have a sparkling graphite e90 and matte black style 359s, I'm taking them to get repowder coated next week and wanted to do something different but nice. Either wanted to do a gloss black or a dark or navy blue. Any input would be appreciated!

Satin Copper, black or dark blue will look same in shade.

I was thinking of that color too. You think copper and sparkling graphite look good?

Lon at HRE put these on his car while back. Unique look not for everyone, I liked it. Also this post has HREs in copper.

SG is tough! Hmmm... A navy blue like mag blue looks good on space gray; not sure about sparkling graphite. What about a bronze?

Bronze I was all for until I saw a picture of them. I'm not too crazy about a dark bronze. Almost makes the wheel look dirty. Why does it have to be so tough with my color!

I actually really like this color... has a clean orange tint to it almost... I'm adding this color to the list

The copper is hard to pull off. Brushed bronze is what I keep trying to get somebody to do.

I'm either going to do copper or a light bronze. I'll see what the powder looks like against my paint. I'll post pics up when I get them back

Gunmetal always looks good on Space Gray. I imagine it would look good on Sparkling Graphite, too.
