OEM wheels painted bronze on CGP?
Anyone dones this? I've been searching and can't find any pictures. I have an 04 and am seriously considering painting my stock wheels bronze before putting them on for the winter. There's a great DIY guide on the TL forums so I'm confident I can do the job, I just want to get an idea of what it'll look like.
Any help is appreciated.

I personally think that CGP is a very hard color to choose wheels for. There are two CGPs that I know of that have bronze wheels. You've probably seen them too. There is one with Works and there is another with Volks. They looked good on both cars.
I think out of all the colors you could paint your stock wheels, bronze would probably be the best. Black looks cheap, there is too much contrast with white, and gold is too light. You could also leave them the way they are

Yeah, I would not want black on a CGP car, but I do like how it looks on PWP with red calipers.
White would look ridiculous, and too dingy/dirty.
Bronze has potential. I love the bronze CE28N's one member (turoneatingpinoy?) has on his CGP. It's a question of finding the right bronze spraypaint (not sure what bronze Duplicolor looks like in person) for the job.
