alloys and mudflaps

[plexo]

have 14" corsa alloys on my car at the minute, got them for £40 with 2 part worns and 2 diy slicks lol

they are the 3 spoke sport/sri what ever alloys as far as i know...

anyway when i bought them the paint was flaking off like mad i couldnt be bothered to fix it all so i had a quick sand at them and sprayed them with some left over paint from my bonnet, matt black

getting a bit bored of the matt black look and to be honest it was only a temp fix til i could be bothered to fix them, matt black bonnet i think il just pour petrol or t cut over it and remove the paint back down to the original silver until i get my badboy bonnet isoponed (some cracks), sanded, sprayed etc (flush boot to come first its nearly finished)

heres a pic of the wheels at the minute



the question is, what colour??

i was thinking doing gloss black, but everyone has gloss black on silver corsas its unreal.

then thought maybe white but i think it would look a bit naff since its a silver car
at the minute i am thinkin of having it like grey primer colour and then having the outer part of the rim just saw alloy to give them a nice shiny ring around them at night against lights.

any other colour suggestions or what else i could do?

also i have some standard vauxhall corsa mudflaps, i am debating whether or not to put them on or to get the rally style ones off ebay duno

Personally i think green wheels with maybe green mudflaps would look lush on a silver corsa. I think white would look slightly odd and obviously silver would look a bit silly. Gloss black is a very nice colour but as you say its very popular so green would stand out

it looks nice as it is, but iv seen them wheels before in black with a blue line going around the edge n it looks right good, could try tht

i know it looks ok in the photo but up close matt black alloys arnt the best looking of things tbh lol

not to mention its starting to peel etc

think thats the first time somebody has said my car looks nice lmao thanks mate

about the green i dont think it would suit the car as ive ... wait for it haha.. blue underglow

think it would make it look more of a xmas tree if i done blue and green an silver

my LED bulbs came today too no more gettin hassled by police for orange brake lights

Lmao haha fair enough - i didnt know bout ur neons m8. errrm blue maybe then? either that or as the other guy sed get them repainted in gloss black so its all in gd condition and put u blue lip on them. should look pretty nice on a silver car that

[plexo]

might try it and see how it looks

i think the blue alloys wouldnt really suit properly

il have a bash at the gloss black with blue lip maybe see how that goes

thanks for input everyone
