Bronze is almost a neutral colour, it'll go with almost anything

What about these volks in carbon grey? (Volk LE-28N) The silver lip looks great and compliment your body colour perfectly.

Basically - what I am suggesting is gun metal!

The LE28N is no longer produced anymore :(
besides, I don't really like the polished chrome lip :D
I was asking if the wheels can be in gunmetal, but the guy I'm dealing with at the moment cannot give me the quote for this custom colour.
Am thinking to powdercoat them once they arrive, but don't know how much it will cost.
Stupid question, if I powdercoat the wheels, will it gain weight? :D

I think the bronze will be fine. All gunmetal may not look as good - the whole car will look very dark. I quite like the silver lip!

Powerdercoating will add some weight - but it is like adding an extra coat of paint to a panel - so slight there is no way you would notice the difference in weight. If you are worried about weight - why all the doof doof in the boot of your car? :D

Can anyone tell me how titanium silver looks like?
The one on rays website looks too silver compared to the pictures on other sites.

The bronze looks good!

Also go my copy of Gran Turismo 4 yesterday.. since im er.. staff.. and i er.. get it early.. but anyways...

Euro Type-R - Arctic Blue - put Ray's rims on (the last one on the right) if you buy the game.. they look like the VOLK's.. gold coloured. All i can say is

VERY DAMN SWEET.

I'll see if i can import the picture out into a usb stick and put it here, be a useful tool for putting wheels on and seeing how they look :D

I'm convinced.. once i save enough money.. i want those nice gold ones on my car!

That's why I need light weight rims for countermeasure :D
