I thought the camaro in the picture was an FB with weird taillights, i'd leave those rims the color that they are.

Dark grey with polished lip!



(or spray paint chrome)

Rotary7s

Only colors I personally would say thats good with that brown is ..

Gold..
Black...
or Polished...

How about repainting the car?

I had a brown car when the song Doo Doo Brown came out,,Dam that was a bad summer..

Bern

a quickie for you..

Saru

I'd say pale grey like in the photo-chop

but if I didn't have to say a colour then I'd say get them sand blasted/bead blasted and clearcoated.

man cleaning all that paint off is quite a task, even with aircraft stripper. i want a sand blaster anyways, so heres a good excuse to go get one
im leanin towards bronze actually, volk style .......

White would look good, silver as well, black w/ polished lip would be SWEEET. not suer i would like goldon that color.

If i ever get new rims, i'm probably going to get chrome 17" like ajc has, well maybe.... i dont know yet.

DITTO!

For some reason that combination always looks best to me. at least on 1st gens.

Here's my car. Those Simmons in the same paint scheme would look even better.

There's a brown 1st gen that get's around my area with gold Simmons with a polished lip, that looks pretty good.

So, I'd say gold.

I brought the bling

I have some black ROH's with a polished lip.

They would look good on any car I would think.

My vote: Black with polished lip.

im removing the side molding when i paint it otherwiswe id go straight black, but since im takin em off i think im gonna go dark grey with polished lip

lookin at sand blaster and cheap taiwan powder coating setups right now and i can do it for about 150 myself, so i think im gonna do it. that way i can powdercoat everything i own

any suggestions on sand blast stuff/powder coating shizzle?

black with silver lip... My friend has teh same setup on his gold/brown 1st gen and I cannot imagine a better looking scheme (well, at least not with the brown )

Solid dark grey, this wouldnt let me post yesterday, sorry:

Cloud

Hmmm...Gamble and I will have identical looking cars (to the casual observer) and whatever he does with his Simmons is probably what I'll be doing with my Panasports...

Great job on these photochops, they give some good ideas of what the car's gonna look like!

Maybe we should just polish the Simmons to a chrome-like shine?

gamble302

nah no polish, i like the dark gray best.

thanks iotus
