D8NMT Posted May 3, 2013 Author Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Just picked the wheels up... they look amazing! Great job on the refurb and the colour looks amazing. Sadly the colour looks completely different through my iphone camera (it looks orange!) In the flesh the are a very deep and glossy red. Cant wait to fit them [/url] [/url] Edited May 3, 2013 by D8NMT Quote
AliveBoy Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 They look great, when are they going on? Did you get the centre caps painted red too? Quote

They've done a great job, shame the colour looks different on the pics, you can't see the shine! The are going on first thing in the morning. I need to decide how to do the centre caps. the nissan badges will be staying silver, and I have some carbon fibre wrap and some red carbon fibre wrap for them. Just cant decide. Was going to do one of each and try them to see which looks best. thoughts? Quote

The black might be nice, a bit of a contrast and it wont look like they are missing as they will still have the nissan badges. Quote

Carbon fibre to break them up a bit and the silver nissan badges will tie in with my silver paint :-) Edited May 3, 2013 by D8NMT 1 Quote

LRF4N Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 Is the rest of the car staying standard? No, it's got an exhaust, black front splitter, lowered, spacers and a few other bits Personally I think a bright colour like that on the wheels needs a heavily modded car for it to work and a couple of accents somewhere in the same colour Just my opinion as long as your happy with it Quote
Dblock Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Your about a year and a half behind mate :-p Looking good. Quote
D8NMT Posted May 4, 2013 Author Posted May 4, 2013 Got them fitted! They look amazing! Really please. Still need to fit the centre caps, but you get the idea... Quote
theheff Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 That actually looks quite nice mate. Well done for taking the risk and being different Quote
