Which colour?

I went for a chrome effect after agonising about it in photoshop.

As post above, I felt darker colours can get lost in there on a GM. I very nearly went cobalt! It's a very personal thing though, there are no wrong answers. Except GREEN ;)

Bronze seems to be a colour on the way up :thumbs:

I would go for red though, they would really pop with a GM

 

I was looking at Red as I think that could look really nice as well. Has anyone got any pictures of GM with Red wheels by any chance??

 

I think I mocked one up when I was considering. I'll try and dig it out tonight.

This is the shadow chrome I was after, you'll recognise it from Beamers all over. The reason he gave me a big price was it was a multi coat and colour, paint only finish, to get it as per BMW quality. These are some BMW wheels he happened to have in and he offered up to the car. I very nearly went for these and had the wheels off him too.

Another, darker, take on shadow chrome here. There are many variations.

But then I got over shadow chrome and got into Formula Silver.

But then I had a cobalt phase

Followed by a bronze phase, I really liked this, but was worried it might end up gold and look like a wannabe scooby.

Then I flirted with red, but once I got about half way through mocking up the pic, I decided I didn't like it, so not a great job on this pic.

Part of me wishes I was brave enough to go for the cobalt, I think that would rule, but I think I'm getting too Danny Glover, too old for that @*!#. ;)
