Default Ahh decision...

hey guys...I purchased this Z off a member on here recently...I love the gold..but the fronts are faded and at lights dont match the rear.So im considering gettin these things re-powderd...I've been thinking about doing a crazy color...also thought about just doing the gold or a dark bronze...but bright orange is a option too..just like to get some ideas from other Z guys and wheel ******.

I say just get them re-done with better gold. Gold wheels on a black Z is a sick combo.

Do what you feel you want. Don't let people tell you to go one route cause it's the so-called standard. Tired of people saying follow the trend cause it's safe. Customizing is about being different. I bought some weds bvillens. My car is solar orange with a pearl. I'm doing a black center with a solar orange with pearl lip. If I ask people here to either refurbish them or paint them Like that 95% will say refurbish cause people like to follow the herd. I would get Flamed. If you really like Orange than roll with it.

i hope you're stuck at work as i am cause if you dredged this ancient thread up on a friday night on your own time to ask what colour the op went with ( sarcastic or not ) then you need to get yourself a hooker.
