Bildo Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Need some opinions, I've always been kinda 50/50 as to whether I like the wheels I have on my Glanza since I bought it. Several people have tried to convince me otherwise but they've not fully grown on me. I was thinking about getting a new set but these still have good tyres, so I figured I'd consider keeping them and have them refurbished so they're immaculate.I'm now considering getting them changed from the silver/grey colour they are to white, did a photoshop:Before: After: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bildo Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Didn't realise it'd be this one-sided! Hmm, if only I had the spare cash waiting right now. I may have to prioritise this before my headunit now that I've seen how it'll look. Idrees - Bit simpler changing the colour of things than attaching something where a pic has been taken from a different angle etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 If you want to change them, change them, however i think they look fine as they are. A nice wheel those are.In white they now look like Wedsport RS-5's, i know, i've had a few sets Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A nice wheel those are.In white they now look like Wedsport RS-5's, i know, i've had a few sets I don't like them because of the colour of the wheel and the fact the chrome lip is rather scratched, looks like it wasn't really cared for properly. Both of those things would be corrected during a refurb.I do love them in white though, the more I look at them the more im like Edit: They do look rather similar to Wedsports, that's not a bad thing though!

Bildo Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Haha.Now for the big decision, I can't decide what to do next with the car. My headunit is a complete disaster, doesnt even sit in the slot properly and doesn't have any way of changing the sound settings, so I'm stuck with the worst sounding music ever with absolutely no bass to it.Then, I have the standard Glanza seats which I don't find particuarly comfortable, and would like to replace them, but since I only ever have to drive the car when I want to as I have a daily driver they're not overly essential at the moment.Then theres the wheels, which I feel could make me love the car a fair bit more if they came out as good as they do in that Photoshop.At the moment, I'm thinking of doing them in this order:Half decent headunitWheelsRecarosWhat would other people do?

Idrees Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I agree with your list mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 the reason you odnt like them as much and are swaying to which models you want is because you didnt add them yourself. i have a set of advans and i would like to get some more but then whats the point when you allready have some wicked rims allready. just refurb em thas what im gonna do. o by the way im not a phsycologist <<and dont think i can spell ither lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

briggers Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 spend the extra cash on a newr model front bumper and reflets? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 would be the perfect looking glanza in my opinion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bildo Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 spend the extra cash on a newr model front bumper and reflets?I can save afterwards. Best to do things one at a time anyway, you appreciate them more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Definately get them refurbed like that, they look so good on itOh and then late spec rear lights would be the next thing on the list after the refurb if I was you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tucka Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 hummm, im not sure dude i dont really like them....think it would look better the full rim sprayed white, or spray ya center black and your lip red, or loads of diffrent other options to go for.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 There mint rims so why waste money on a new set when you can get them looking like in the PS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedFreak Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Yeah I agree with that - I wouldnt spend money on another set when those ones are good enough. I would just spray them. I think once you have sprayed them and added your own touch you will like them alot more.I would personally do the list in the order that bothers you the most = I.e - if the headunit is really bothering you most, do that first. Then the wheels..etc etc.I really need to sort my interior out and re fibreglass and spray my front bumper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not keen on red as I'd have to get something red to match it, then knowing me about 75% of the car will end up red, even though I don't like it as a colour. hah. There mint rims so why waste money on a new set when you can get them looking like in the PS ;)Never really liked them much as they were, I do, however love them in white, if they come out anything like the pics (I don't see why they wouldn't.)
