I was thinking of getting black corbra R Rims on my 94 gt tripleblack Vert. Can anyone find some pictures of them on a car like that or what would you guys like to see on it? |

Have you looked at saleens? I've always thought a set of black saleens on a black car is clean looking.

what will you do if the black doesnt match the paint on the car, then you will have two different color blacks on your car and it will look out of place.

I had the factory grey bullits but i painted them to match my car... I used the factory paint code and scuffed the whole rim with a grey scotch brite pad and some scuffing paste (which both gives the paint somthing to bite to and cleans the wheel) then i taped off the lip and the wheel seperate and sprayed the black and let that set and took the tape off the lip and cleared the whole wheel so there was no paint edge... the wheels match the car perfectly |
