Photoshop assistance needed

I was wondering if any of you guys/gals can help me out with some photo-shopping for my wheels.

I posted my wheels for sale in the BM, but it looks like no one is biting, so I think I'm better off getting them repaired and powder coated a different color rather than buying a new set of wheels.

I'm thinking of going with some shade of bronze like this:



This is the only side profile pic I have of the car at the moment:



Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. I like your 2G. Very clean and simple.

I'd suggest leaving it exactly how it is. Or go white if you want a sportier look. Or the shiny bronze/gold if you want flashy. Bronze was never really my thing. But it would look good I think on this car with your paint color.

x2 for the shiny bronze! Would really pop on the SSM and it's not a color scheme you see very often.

I think if he went all out on wheel refinishing Id say go with a fully polished face with a liquid bronze.

Similar to this AG finish... which IMO is a really light liquid bronze.



They fully polish the faces then lay a translucent layer of bronze so you get all the shine from the polish through the bronze color.

Otherwise it's just going to look like a glossy bronze.

^ WOW! A few swings indeed. Thanks for the help and the compliments it is much appreciated. All of those colors actually look pretty darn good, I actually don't know what to go with now

For some reason the white pops out to me but I've seen quite a few ppl around my area with white wheels. The magblue I like a lot too, but it seems a little too dark. Both are colors that I never imagined going with but they are a serious contender now.

I was quoted $125 per wheel to repair and powder coat so the color options are endless. I really like the last wheel you posted but idk how much extra that will cost me. Also idk if it will look as good seeing as how my wheels are not deep dish for the polished lip.

Oh, and your photoshop skills are pretty dope
