Adrian_CNC Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Hi all, I had to make the toughest decision of my life recently - what colour to refurb my RAYS in. I had a few ideas in mind, mainly dark purple, bronze and gunmetal and decided to find a pic of a zed like mine in decent resolution (lazy and weather was crap) and photoshop a few options. I got a bit carried away and made over 20 different variants, some of them just out of curiosity because I'm past the "attention whore" stage so anything bright was out of question. I thought I might as well share it here, might help somebody make the decision. I eventually went with fairly conservative dark gunmetal, took me a while to decide on the particular paint but I'm over the moon with the final result. The paint is called Grey Black (code 7A1) and it's from Porsche GT3RS (pics at the bottom). 7A1 Grey Black (don't have a picture in the sun but they look very different depending on the light which I find really cool ) Edited September 6, 2014 by Adrian_CNC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustie Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Out of the stand out type colours I like the first ones as for the broze I like the dark ones best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saihaynes Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Rays turned out great dude, i personally love the white ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINKJ Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 depends on what you're trying to achieve.. do you want stand out wheels (pink, orange, red,)... or do you want more subtle (grey, silver, black...)?? then work from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d95gas Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Any chance you can change the vehicle colour to black with the same combination of wheels displayed on the grey vehicle. I'm looking at having my rims done shortly so this would be a good thread to make a decision on colour. Thanks in anticipation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Nice photoshop work there and as we often see requests for wheel colours I have pinned this thread 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 PURPLE!! That looks awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikevv Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Useful thread, although now I'm stuck between a gold/bronze and a dark anthracite type colour. Dark purple, almost black might be a cool idea, but worried it'll look odd against a black 350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Purple is awesome but you probably wont pull it off on std rays with no lip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exec Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 The dark shades of bronze look nice I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisjohnston95 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I've just bought the zed from Adrian, happy to see I'm not the only one who loves the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rook Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Whoever necro-bumped this thread, thank you. What a gem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
