Jetpilot Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 Very nice indeed, it is like a brighter cadburys purple..... Thanks buddy, i really like the midnight purple but might be just a little to dark on a black car Quote
Jay Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) It would be pretty dark on a black car.... but that shade of purple is spot on. However, I also have a soft spot for anodised red or pearl orange on black cars. Edited March 25, 2013 by Jay Quote
Jetpilot Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 I did think about orange, but think that purple will be more subtle on the black, Thoughts on Gtc's or Sf's now please sir? Quote
S1 HNK Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Been over to my sprayer today and he showed me a House of Kolor kandy purple http://www.dorbritzdesigns.com/2011_08_01_archive.html Perfect!! Quote
LRF4N Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 I think any colour other than black or a standard car and probably other styles of wheel and it would look wrong. I'm usually boring when it comes to wheels and only like silver or anthracite but if you achieve "that look" I might be persuaded. Of the colours suggested so far the house of colour purple is the best Quote

Of the colours suggested so far the house of colour purple is the best I do like black wheels and silver, but imho, black wheels has just been done to death. Particularly now manufacturers do black options. Hence why i went wild on my Rezax and want to do something a little off beat and not the norm. The right colour however is a difficult one to get right, but am liking the kandy purple. Also looked at a green in a similar kandy but think that may be a bit too much. Quote
nap Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 i went purple on my aristo with a polished lip,never looked eney good on photo though,the photo never ever turned out its true colour. Quote
Jetpilot Posted April 22, 2013 Author Posted April 22, 2013 Being purpled as we speak, should be on by the end of the week, will update with photos 1 Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Being purpled as we speak, should be on by the end of the week, will update with photos Looking forward to seeing them... Quote
Jetpilot Posted April 28, 2013 Author Posted April 28, 2013 Photos below, as mentioned above its difficult to get a true representation of the colour, on the front wheel photo you can see the purple being quite light on the spokes, when the sun is on them thats the best representation, they really come alive being a kandy. Very pleased, subtle enough and not too in your face, but bright enough to be different Quote

Sam Mcgoo Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Look good. So is the rim just polished and lacquered or painted? Quote
Jetpilot Posted April 29, 2013 Author Posted April 29, 2013 Just polished. 3 coats of poor boys wheel sealant and a coat of jet seal 109 over that. Quote
