To black or not?

Hello, I've got an l322 in cairns blue vogue 55! I've got two sets of wheels one with new zeon ltz(mudish) and original wheels which are corroded and curbed with m+a tyres worn, my question, do I get the old wheels refurbed as were or do I go black? Anyone done this with pics would be great? Cheers

What size and style?

I did mine in dark graphite and against black it was too much, no pics sorry, black wheels look better on a lighter car imho, and i thought grey would work, wasnt keen, they are now in the garage and may go on the disco after silver refub... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Yep pretty much the same as the ones i have in grey, silver is the way to go or maybe a light smoked chrome. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I went dark grey on my 7 spoke 20"'s, but I think I would stick to silver for the standard 18" & 19"s .

My point exactly, they look good on lighter coloured cars, on dark blue, i think the wheels would be lost. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Cairns Blue is not dark though is it Mr Jones sir...

Google Plastidip... Spray on plastic wrap stuff, peel it off when you have had enough! Surely would give you the effect your looking for before you commit... Thumbs Up
