guys

I want opinions and suggestions although in the end might so what I like :D

I want to change the colour of my alloys there is a picture with different colours of Tenzo, loved these Tenzo wheels but as dont want to buy now so will change the colour of M45 wheels which I have on my car now. Im more inclined towards Bronze colour and did tried some photoshop options in bronze, dark grey and STI colour as well.

well..to say i love the combo of m45 rims on the G.

gunmetal greay would be seccond
thats it..broze and golden..umm...no comments :)

Let the original remain, but if you have to do it then: 'dark dark grey' :)

That stip will be black ofcourse I dont like chrome front grill and rear piece is already painted and i might foil these black.

Man I had that on OEM wheels was not that bad as I copied the GTR colour but you know dont want to do that again.

The bronze won't go with the M45 rims. Don't get me wrong, it looks great on black but not on M45ers.

really? as I was thinking bronze goes with the spikes. My plan was to do in two shades on the front of spikes a ligher coat and inside slightly darker so that it will stand out
