Tight!!

Man..gunmetal on the stock rims would look sweet on the silver RX-7!!!

The black Mazda emblem on my stockers is scraped off on some, completly gone on the others. You know what would kick butt? Painting the Mazda emblem silver...with that gunmetal.

Would look nice, no? Or..am I going the ricer route..heh..

Anyways, it's Nice!! Nothing like a little bit of ingenuity!!!

 

Looks very sharp. Now that I have relegated my stockers to track wheels, I'm thinking of going gunmetal. It'll help hide all the dusting from my EBC Reds

 

I think gunmetal would look great on just about any color. The only color I would think twice about is on a MB car. on Black, silver, white, red and yellow its YUMMY.

 

Do you guyst think Flat Black would look good on a Red Rx-7? I checked one out somewhere but I forgot the site. It had a carbon fiber hood, flat black stock rims, and a nice carbon fiber lip. Very clean. If anyone has Flat Black rims on their 7 could you please snap off a few pics and put them up? Thanks.

 

That's badass man, I have the same style 7 (black, no spoiler, stock wheels). I really want to do that to my wheels now, I am jealous!

 

Do you have any pics of the interior?? Is it tan?

 

Its been almost a year since I installed the leatherseats.com seats. Here is the original thread. I had a 94 with TAN interior. Keep in mind in 94/95, the seats and carpet are tan, the rest of the car is black. So it simplifies stuff. I still painted the doors and dash just to update the color.

nice but I think black on black is better. IMO anways. way to go tho, still sexy.

since this post has been resurrected, I have to ask, how are the painted wheels holding up?

 

I also refinished my wheels, although I now feel that I didn't use enough clear coat. You really need to spray it on thick. 1 can is not enough, even if you aren't doing the insides. Anyway my site has more info.

 

Even better than Tina Turners legs.

 

Cool, I might do it someday then!

 

Anyone have any pics of a silver fd with wheels painted gunmetal. I'm going to refinish my wheels. THinking about powdercoating, cost sounds like it will be the major issue here.
Great thread... glad someone resurrected it!

 

off subject: would gunmetals look good on MB? =\

 

those rims look awesome...you definitely saved yourself a lot of money...perhaps i'll look into doing that for my rims once my new ones come in. thanks for the write-up...
