Bronze colored parts?

I am probably going to get the bronze volk se37a for black base fd. My only problem with it is that the badges and the exhaust won't match the wheels like they do when it is stock. Would there be a way to get bronze colored badges (regular of efini), and the real kicker...a bronze finish exhaust? I know it's a real stretch but i think it would look real classy if those parts as well as the lug nuts matched with the wheels. Just an idea.

OMG!!! Well if this is what you really want APEX'i has a few colored N1 exhausts. They have blue, purple and a yellowish color that might work.

Bronze huh? Dunno about classy but def. diferent.

I'm agreeing w/ ya ducky... just had the same exact conversation w/ my friends last night, however mine w/ a black Turbo II. Perfectly clean car w/ 34K on it so it would look pretty damn good! If you find anything out lemme know and I'll do the same

Personally I think it will be too much gold with the exhaust etc, especially because they exhaust you get will probably be gold and not bronze like the wheels, and the same goes for the emblems unless you somehow paint everything the same bronze color, but still I think it's too much bronze. But rotaryknight is right it would be different..

I actually just wanted a little something to match the bronze Konig Imagines that I think would look damn good on a black FC

bronze wheels look good on black color car of course, I am just not too much for the emblems and exhaust being actually "gold"...

I don't want them if they are gold. Interested in a darker bronze color. That said, are there any pictures ANYWHERE of the yellow apexi n1? Is it the single or the dual? Would there be any way to change the finish on a muffler like getting it coated or something?

By the way...this will almost certainly never happen, i just think it would be interesting. The emblems at least have to be doable. There has to be some way to coat them and give them a bronze finish. Come on, throw out your ideas!

broze wheels on a black car looks awsome, but gold emblems and gold exhaust... i have seen a white Rav4 with gold emblems and a gold screw-on exhaust tip. it looked pretty , IMO.

but hey...its your car, and do whatever you want.
