Can someone help me out??

Post by gp20mushii »

I want to get my rims repainted, a couple years back someone did a crappy job on the powdercoat and its chipping away everywhere. I wanted to see if someone could photoshop me a cool/good looking color for my car of the rims, or if it would just be better to get it back to silver.... here's a couple pics...

lol apparently u didnt read he said the powdercoat paint someone did a few years ago is chipping..so he wants ideas for either a different color..or to go with silver again..i have an idea..but i think it'd look weird..what other colors would you consider, maybe gold..maybe black..maybe just all red?

yea...i know they're silver cmon now! haha...but nah, i just wanted to see what other options might look good, im too broke to get different rims, and if none of the other options look alright, i was just gonna get them repainted the same as they are now. but i'd consider any color, so i thought to ask here since i know there are some ppl who are real good with photoshop. if they were like a darker color i was gonna try to get the roof rack and grill painted the same too to match...

going off from what Blanco did with the black..i did 2 that i think would look good.the front is the black with a red lip..give it abit of contrast..and the back, i noticed the rim has abit of a square shape to each spoke..so i did those red

Ya. The Hyper Black for sure. Gunmetal would be ok, too. Black is best! Abyss is a great color for the Vibe... and just about any wheel looks excellent on it... although the red is a little scary. Nice 5 spoke... are they 18s? Maybe 19s?
