Re: alloy wheel respray

I cant decide whether it looks top notch, or tacky.

It doesnt have a middle ground like most decisions lol. I say either black or the orginal colour. Although I would say the orange would be unique.

Re: alloy wheel respray

It would look good if it was a show car, but anybody who isnt really into modifying would think

But, saying that I quite like the idea. Its different.
