Bill K Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I know you didnt ask for an opinion as to how it looks and I admitt that I'm old and styles do change while some of us dont. (me) I always felt that you bettered a car by going from painted wheels to chrome. Just my 2 cents worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacseville Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 there is a small movement going to painted wheels. it's not really huge, but there are quite a few. i really like the change. i'm kinda getting bored of chrome. especially uninteresting chromes like mine.

bigfoo Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Wanna see what your car would look like with tinted windows or headlight blackouts or a different color? Heheh It was very hard on those low res pics but I think it turned out pretty darn good hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2 cents worth. well to be honest, chrome only IMO looks goof on certain cars..particulary luxury cars...on anything else..like mainstream it looks at of place...in my case, im getting tired of my chromes...to granny like.

bigfoo Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 How about THIS???????? HEHEHE I only spent about 5 minutes on it so it looks rather crappy but you get the point.. I wanted to know what anodized red and anodized close to my car's real color would look like on the rims I think the red really looks nice.. but i'm not sure it belongs on a caddy The green (front rim) looks a little odd.. I picked a color from the body of the car and 'anodized' it onto the rim (using non incremental transparent airbrush tools in GIMP) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
