ok, so its been a while since ive been on here but i figured i would show the transition pics of my truck. i love the murdered out look but there a lot of murdered out vehicles around now and wanted a little more contrast. im a huge fan subaru wrx sti's so i figured i would go with bronze. ive never seen anybody do bronze wheels on a suv or truck so here ya go, let me know

1. painted all exterior trim black, but before lowering kit, exhaust and wheels

4.new tires and painted wheels

so the last one is an attempt at bronze wheels. they are 96 mustang gt wheels with 255/50/17 tires. im still not totally into the color as they look a little bit too gold in the sun.
jsut curious about your opinions, i think im going to back to the almost stock silver/graphite if i can find a nice in between color.

i gotta figure out why my computer keeps shrinking the last photo
 












nice 01 sport u got there
 






The bronze doesnt look too bad. A dark shadow grey would look nice too

ya, i agree i think im going to find a new color. i think it would look best if it were in between a graphite and a silver like the original mustang wheels pic
 












I painted mine black. Used rustoleum hammered paint
