Wheel colour? - Niall - 27-08-2012
Refurbed my wheels 6 months back. Looked good but I used crap laquer and basically the brake dust has ruined them so it's time to refurb them.
Two options.
Either gold like kingys or dum dums (for once I actually like something Chris did!)
Or shadow chrome.
Opinions?
Of course if people want to do some photoshops, feel free

Nah goona splitter looks good when it's fitted properly....basically not with 4 cable ties.
Yeah it's basically chrome with a black over lay
RE: Wheel colour? - Toms306 - 27-08-2012
Fair enough, id go with that over gold then.
RE: Wheel colour? - Kimmie - 27-08-2012
Gold! Although the shadow chrome was nice on Scott's clones, the gold will stand out more and look really niiice

Shadow chrome. We can't photoshop a crap pic where you haven't even bloody cleaned them though! (off to raid your project thread for a better picture...)

Well there is also that one. I don't really take many photos of my car!
RE: Wheel colour? - C.A.R. - 28-08-2012
The best one I found was of your XS, so I'll doodle something at lunchtime. Only real difference being that the passenger door is the same colour as the rest of the car
:p
RE: Wheel colour? - Eeyore - 28-08-2012

Sam that looks far too dark to be shadow chrome.

That is shadow chrome..
From what I've read on it, it's not easy to do a cheap job of; you need to undercoat the alloy in black, then put a very light coat of silver over the top... I do agree it looks porno though
but that's why you wont find it 'in a can' in the shops!!
RE: Wheel colour? - C.A.R. - 29-08-2012
Ed is exactly right, much like a pearl finish the shadow chrome is a two-stage process, effectively two different colours.
I'll have a crack at photoshop now...
RE: Wheel colour? - C.A.R. - 29-08-2012
OK finally got around to doing this...
