theres no way i have money for new ones, so im starting to wonder what painted 97 rims would look like. id have to do something unique, i cant see blacked out rims working on a primrose cl.

i guess im just wondering what would look good/whats been done/ some pictures?

 

There's plenty of threads, search. Personally a gunmetal or bronze would look great on a primrose

 

i searched for like a half hour and saw plenty of painted rims, but no 97's, and no primrose. maybe im just bad at searching? ill look more but links, comments, etc would be appreciated.

 

your rims are the 5 spoke rims right? hmmmm on a primrose?

well im always trying to go for whatever is safe. and for me thats black spoke with polished lip. but your rims dont have a lip. maybe try a gloss black. i mean matte paint wont do but try gloss black so then atleast theres a bit of a shine to it

 

yeah ive got the big clunky 5 spokes. its a primrose.

i thought about it, and i just dont really think black would look too great. the bronze sounds kinda cool, but im still not completely sure on that. i was thinking about like a dark gunmetal color? not sure.

 

dark gunmetal? maybe try photoshop before hand? just so you know what it looks like.

 

im photoshoptarded. im pretty computer/program/hardware knowledgeable, but photoshop and i dont like eachother. anyone care to do a chop? dark gunmetal? bronze?

 

??????????????????BRONZE?

 

Nice photoshop...

 

I dont think thats a photoshop...

 

thats not a photoshop .....actually it might be from the lowering.
post a good pic of your car and wheels and ill ps it for you.

 

I meant him lowering it... the wheels aren't but the lowering of it.

 

suuuuuuure

 

it shopped, you can see the blur around the fenders.
shitty picture, but oh well.

 

sweet jebus that pic sucks, im gonna just use a different one.

gunmetal

black

gold

green

light bronze

dark bronze

 

Gunmetal, black, or dark bronze has my vote. Although the green was a close 2nd. haha.

 

i gave this one a good try.

 

you would have been better off with drawing a vector circle and rotating it for the back one, looks choppy. but 972.2 doesnt have tint or black housing so it might change the look a lil.

 

i tried to draw a vector circle for the rear but i couldn't see the edge for shit haha.

 

my cars also not slammed haha. im really iffy on all of it. id definitely have to think about it a lot before i do anything. on top of that, my girlfriend just saw the shops and is already bitching.

 

Whoa man, you only 17 and you have a GF complaining? Ouch!!!!!

I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!!!! But I've been married 7 years.

BTW I think the Bronze looks pretty good!

 

bitches aient shit. seriously, at 17 shes not worth the headache. thats how my ex was. She thought i loved my car more than her.. and i did. thats why shes my ex. actually, not exactly true, but close enough.

 

im starting to think something like a semi gloss black and polishing the lip, like acura_2nr's.

 

did she pay for anything on the car? no? then do what i do when my girl says something and tell her to either buy something for your car or STFU. Then again, my current girl doesn't complain she just helps lol. Thats what i did for when my ex's complained.

Those chops look really nice. I'd go for the black w/red line or the dark bronze or gunmetal, those seem to be the best looking.
