Stew Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Nice 360 spyder in the garage too! I think the Ings with the square number plate will suit your car well. It looks more 'squat' which will suit the stance of the car. I'd be tempted to leave the wheels as is. However I'm a sucker for coloured rims on white cars...... edit - by coloured I don't mean white! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1 HNK Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 what are you having painted white exactly? dont paint the wheels white they will look awful, not so keen on the kit. I think your car looks good so low without a kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashz Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 yh i kno what you mean about the stance hopefully will look realy nice once finished but the wheels im so tempted to do the dish like a matte white that would look even the spyder got the treatment for cs kit lol the whole car getting done white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1 HNK Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 ahhhh now i understand! that will look lovely, if anything i would spray the centre of the wheels in gunmetal which would look on a white car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashz Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 gunmetal has been mentioned in a convo between me and the painter.. some colour would be nice tho as its only going to be used on sunny days lol so its gna b parked most of the time i dnt want to chrome them coz chrome tends to peel..

Andy Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I would do the dish in white and the centers in black!! Project looks good mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 It depends on the style of wheel tbh. Personally, I'd leave the wheels as they are if the car is gonna be gunmetal or powdercoat the spokes gloss black if the car is gonna be white.

srobrien Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Noooooo don't paint the car white!!!! as much as i love the new white cars, the black is awsome, especially with those wheels and new fat a*s!. Personally I think it looks sweet as is. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Interesting project! Is the 360 yours too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I think the car looks fab black. Personally if i wanted a white one I think I would have sold the black one and just bought a white one. There was tonnes of white ones available in japan when I had mine imported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was tonnes of white ones available in japan when I had mine imported. Easier said than done, Nixy. Zeds aren't exactly selling like hot cakes at the moment and imports are no longer viable with the weak pound. Weird times... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashz Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 true said my plan was to buy a white one and sell mine... the market is very very slow at the moment ... so just cudnt b botherd and decided to spray this.. 360 is my brothers... any excuse for a pic lol i need some more black detail on the car because it will look plain from the sides i was thinking a decal or sumfin...

clarkie34 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Personally i would leave it black. That last pic with the 360 it looks really menacing,with the kit will look more evil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 TBH i love the car the way it is m8! The ings rear defo suits the stance of the car and makes it look slightly more aggressive. But no dont do it white lol! The black looks immense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I like the aggressive look it gives the car which I think will be lost in white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashz Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 yh i also think the aggresiveness wil be taken away with the colour white but it will also create a new theme... black is perfect but it doesnt stand out and doesnt have as much wow factor as the white.. i still want the other ings rear bumper the lx but that will be in time... iv been thinking hard about it just do the car a glossy black or just bright glossy white its a very hard decision the cost is the same really and iv got a few days to make my mind up..
