Hey guys,
I'm planning to start refurbishing a set of Saxo VTS alloys that I bought a while back before fitting them, they're white at the moment, any ideas for colours? Any colours will be considered..
Them at the moment -
A quick photoshop -
And finally the car as it stands -
Thanks,
Paddy!

I was looking at something like that but it looks like itd be quite a difficult finish to get from a home job.

Glow in the dark. Not sure if it would be a first for the forum.

Just thought I would throw this in the mixer, how about moonstone blue colour on your wheels they would definitely stand out against your black colour car?

That could be a good shout mate, I might try a few photoshops later on and see what I think! Cheers!
