gonna paint my rims......

[Matt]

so im on vacation from work and im bored....so ive been looking at the rs stock silver rims and ive decided they need an upgrade....i searched rs25 but couldn't find any decent photos of a silver rs with either gold or bronze stock rims..6 spoke...you guys think that combo would look alright or maybe black? the car has been painted a silver metallic so its a lot more silver that the stock color. Any tips on a painting them and what paint?

I like the paint-matched wheels with the off-color rim. Sure its not a GC, but oh well.

Gold looks good. I thought it might be clash with sliver, but it really looks nice!

O the poor playing cards!

[Matt]
