Black 'n' Yellow


Yellow powdercoated A-spec rims and yellow tinted fogs. Yay or nay?



P.S: I borrowed Roger555's picture to photoshop, it's not mine (asked his permission via PM but he didn't reply yet so I posted up anyway, I will remove it if he doesn't approve). Planning to do this in the Spring time. What you guys think?

Fog lights are nice but you cannot do that to a set of a-specs.

RHD? Come on guys, been drinking too much on this New Years? The picture was flipped so it looks like the steering wheel is on the right side.

OP is simply asking us an opinion and we are just giving him answers to what we think. Those who like say yes, those who dont say no, those who just wanna look and leave no comment, fine.. there's always going to be "hate" on an online forum .

just like CL said, get some decent wheels to powdercoat bright colors like yellow, orange, teal, etc... don't do it to OEM wheels. the only colors that OEM wheels should ever be PC'd IMO are black and gunmetal.

Schweinsteiger- don't get all butthurt cuz someone is getting called a ricer for painting OEM wheels yellow, and then post a pic of $3k Orange Volks.

As much as I don't like the color combo, I gotta admit it is very clean looking. If only they were only a better looking color wheels and fogs I would love it.

Im not butthurt lol my behind feels fine. I understand the difference between the wheels as well, but I don't understand the rice comment because I feel like rice is big body kits, exhaust tips, wings etc. I think that color scheme would still look clean, which isn't rice (I think we can all agree).

No. Painting a TL hot pink would look better than that.
