Wheel colour

[Rikki Kitto]

OK, getting the Porsche Cup alloys refurbed very soon. What should I go for?
I have the RS2 hubs,studs and big reds all-round.

1: Standard original silver

2: Anthracite

3: Black gloss

4: White


By the way found a cracking top class place to do them in Hertford, £300 all in. Drive car in leave it with them for the day wheels off, tyres off, stripped, refurbed, painted, tyres back on, wheels back on, SWEET.

Is that a good price? I reckon it's pretty good.

What colour car is it? Put up a pic, I'm sure some photo shoppe expert can mock them up for you

Might want to stick up a picture of the car.

Is this the purple coupe?

[Dan]

I'd go for silver on that colour car.

[andy10v]

A little bigger



I would have thought anthracite would look good, plus it doesn't show up brake dust as bad .

Let the photochoppers do their magic.

Cheers, still trying to work out how to do picture messaging on my mobile bit of a technophobe, sorry

I have seen black on a byzanz coupe and didn't like it, but then I think black wheels just look dirty, a bit like wearing muddy boots with a wedding suit
My byzanz coupe ( 2.6 ABC ) is on 18" RS4's replicas in bright shiny silver and it looks great against the purple
Whilst messing about with the camera the other day trying to brighten up a photo, I almost made the RS4's look white and that looked pretty good aswell

Hey Dobbie 84,

I like that front bumper on your ol' coupe... can you share the details of where you got it, and who makes 'em?
Cheers

Cheers Tango.
I bought t from here:

Its still only a bumper skin despite the price and you have to bond the internals from the orininal bumper so you can fit it to the car or do what I do and make up your own brackets.

I shouldnt of sold it with my old coupe but didnt have a replacement bumper to go on it so had no choice really.

anthracite, price wise, thats about double what it costs from most places round here...

Thaty maybe because your paying for labour for them to remove the wheels and tyres and put them back on. My mate charges around £40 a wheel depending how damaged they are and what colour/finish you go for but then that is if you give him the bare wheels. He would probably charge more if he has to take the wheels off and remove the tyres.

Anthracite or black with silver lips, if you want something a little different.

This was my coupe with 17" black alloys with polished lips (for sale on ebay at the moment. plug plug!) Just to give you an idea. This was befor the car was lowered so looks a bit silly. lol



I never got around to sprying the centers but think they would've looked better black rather than silver. I would still be running them if the opertunity to but the 18" rs4 wheels didnt come along.

Sorry gotta read more carefully
