hey guys,
i got a blk Z and i wanna do some wheels to it thinking about doing TE37's in gold! will it look good? i want something no one else have and something different or should i just go for the "blk on blk" look?? its alot of money im dishing out...also IF the 450Z does come out...im def gonna pick that up in White and i know White and gold looks great IMO but i wanna hear your opinion about Blk body wit Gold wheels...please someone help me out...thanks...

 

anyone???

 

If you like them gold, get them gold!

Why is your avatar showing a Yellow Z if yours is black?

 

In my opinion black and gold is a no go. just because we have so many silver and chrome accents on the car (door handles, headlights, interior, etc) i think the gold might clash a bit, but that's just my thoughts. Like Kolia said, if you like gold, get gold. So long as you like the look, who really cares what others think. Just be sure and post pictures when you do get them

 

I think the gold will look awsome on black. go for it!

 

black + gold is an awesome combo though i would get the LE37T for a polished lip. I'm positive i've already seen a black Z or two with the Gold LE37Ts...just can't remember who posted them.

and as a case for black on gold...time for me to picture ***** hahahaha

 

Black and gold would look good if you get the polished lip like pictured above to tie in the door handles and other silver accents.

 

Forgot about the polished lip. noodleman's z looks hot with the gold wheels and polished lips, should help complete the car. That being said, I retract my previous statemnet about gold wheels after seeing that pic.

 

Blk on Blk is more in my taste...

 

Haha, thanks for the props! I'm so glad my buddy convinced me to go gold

as for the black on black, it's really up to personal preference. To me, gold is hella flashy, while black on black is way more aggressive. Both are pretty clean imo, with black being abit cleaner.

edit: for a sample of black with just gold (no polished lip):

 

yikes! this is ruff!

 

TE37's in gold or Gloss blk
-OR-
GT-7's In DB??
if u had to choose...what would u get??

 

Gold TE37 on a black Z's hot...

 

anyone else wit their opinion??

 

if you're only considering TE (the non-polished lip version), then black would probrably make your car really black. Gold TE's will still match well and some colour to the car.

LE (the polished lip version) on the other hand, it's a complete toss up for me. They're both hot in their own respects.

 

i want the one wit the polish lip...should i do the Volks or do some bolt on stuff? Test pipes, headers...??

 

get wheels, the bolt on stuff is easy to come by.

 

so true!

 

+1, not to mention that unless you get alot of bolt ons, you won't get much power from them. Then you wonder why you didn't just turbo it instead? :P

and if you're going for the polished lip, then it's the LE37 you're going for, not TE. There's a couple of pics around there that has an SB Z with gold LE37's...you just need to dig around.

 

Noodleman: thanks for tha advice....also does the gold and blk look...is that the "top secret look"??? just wondering...a friend of mine mentioned it to me but i dont think he knows what hes talkin about
