ignore my dodgy photoshop skills lol but i cant make up my mind as to wheter or not i should paint my rims and the mesh in the openings black.... so i figured i'd ask the masses... anyway throw in any additional comments if you want

as it is now (well, more or less anyway):


what it would look like with black rims and black mesh (roughly):


Whats everyone's thoughts?

surely more than 6 people have an opinion on this?....

 

I say leave them. Unless you are going for the all dark look, I like the contrast of silver against the dark car. Now if the car was red...

 

Paint the mesh, black chrome the wheels, or paint the wheels polish the lip.

 

paint the mesh

leave the wheels. black wheels are a trend that has run its course.

 

Wait never mind. Paint the wheels/mesh white. I love white wheels on a black car.

 

black rims and chrome lip

 

that is one flashy fd. i;d try to tone it down some how. so i guess that means remove the mesh and leave the wheels.

 

sorta going for and all-black/stealth approach, here's a pic of my engine bay.

also i like the idea of a gloss black lip on the rims and a satin centre?....

Is your car Montego Blue or Black? If your gonna paint the rims, try a gunmetal color, and leave the lip alone. I have gunmetal rims on my Black WRX and I didn't like them at first bc I wanted silver, but as I got used to them, I like them more so than just silver.

 

Blacc out the mesh and try to color match the lip to the car. Soon as I get things to paint my 88 Vert I'll be doin that to my ASA AR1s from silver to what ever color I go with the car... Thats only my IMO!!! You got to live with it!!!
