I've just been given some wheels for winter wheels that i'll refurb before I use them so I was going to paint them a funky colour (Red/ Blue/ Green something like that!)

I was also wondering if I should get some spare wing mirrors and a spare bonnet vent and spray them to match

Do I go for it or will it look stupid?

Just do the wheels, not other bits. Odd things like bonnet scoops and wing mirrors look stupid when they're coloured differently to the rest of the car.

Do it like this

HAHA

Er mabie not like that!

I'll see how cheaply I can pick up some spare wingmirrors and a scoop. If I can get them cheap enough i'll do it for $h!ts and giggles and see what it looks like!

Do it for the sake of it. If you don't like it then swap them back.

Sparky. No monster decals.

Kennedy... I want one of those, always liked them for being different. I'd do the wheels different colours too :) They did a golf version aswell in america ;)

Wicked! As ive mentioned in another thread i want my wheels takata green... but its just getting the person/s spraying my wheels to get the colour right(perfect)...

As for the thread topic, im all for colour coding... but its just getting the proportions/colours right....as it could either go really well... or really bad and look total toss.

I think white wheels with white wing mirrors would go well, or any colour code for that matter... but i would have the scoop colour complement the main body colour of the car because if you didnt i reckon itd look a bit random and youve just gone mad with spray paint lol..

But thats just my view. Photoshop is the only way to know without commitment i guess!
