SIAMESE and I painted my 20's TSW's last week. I think they came out extremely good considering we had a few beers by the time the project was completed. I still need to do one more coat...awaiting decent weather. I would like to know everyones thoughts. I feel that they look AWESOME as is, however my goal is to get the rims to compliment the tan leather seats. I have seen off colors or exterior color matched rims, but NEVER have I seen interior matched rims....

Do you like or dislike?
Do you feel that they are too light in color? ( I am caught between trying to go darker, then being screwed because its too dark!

Be NICE in your thoughts...lol!






Minutes before paint!

 

Looks Okay I guess, not feeling the cream color however, but everyone has different taste.
Nice job!

 

I like it its different...

 

I like being different more than anything. I think its against the grain which is what I do most of the time anyways..lol

thaks for the input.

Debating on getting some 20" Deep Dished Axis Matrix anyways this summer.

 

Damn.. I like it!

 

nice nice!!
now it's time to paint ur brakes!
that color gotta go..

 

after a 6 pack and 1am rolled around...removing, sanding and painting the brakes wasnt an option.. I am thinking of going with a dark brown to bring out the Bronz window tinting.... most likely they will be black.

 

I see white cars usually having gold rims or color matched white; the tan rims give off a hybrid of both combined - which is different, but I would've stuck with gunmetal because I'm unoriginal like that. However, you need to work on those brakes! They stick out like a sore thumb!

 

Cool idea, but to me, and I suspect to most people who see it, they will assume that you tried to match the rims to the exterior-and failed badly. Not my cup of tea personally, but once you see what the wheels are really matched to, it does look "better"....

 

Brings out your rims much. I like it this way. Good job

 

I was going to say the same thing as Alberto, but to add to that..... You did a pretty good job for being tipsy!! And I think It woulda looked hotter if you had black or any darker color to bring out the rims more..

 

plus 1,2 with the brakes.

I think in the summer when the roof is open and the windows are down it will be more clear. But keep inmind that the windows are bronz/brown in color.

thanks all....U2 Bert... I am sitting in a CISSP bootcamp right now..testing for the 4th freaking time on Sat. I may pull,sand and paint the brakes then....

The lighting isnt the best in the pic.

Objects are more brown than they appear.! LOL

 

I think the rims are FANTASTIC!! I love Beige on White!!!

 

I knew that would look bad a@@. I love it bro. And I agree with you, it could be a hair darker, but like you said you don't want to go too dark. Did you clear them? If not a coat of clear may darken it up that little bit you're looking for. And its definitely different.

 

What kind of boot camp are you in?

 

I like it. Its clean and different

 

I'm sorry, but I think it looks tight as hell. I just woke up and even the girl that slept over last night thought it was tight.

from the girl that slept over (I'm writing this while she's in the shower....lol)

 

Much better

 

It looks okay, but I think the rims looked better before the paint. The only bad thing about interior matched paint is that 99.9% of the people that see your car don't see the interior.
