    dolphin grey B6..... what color 19's?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I just got bought some adr m-classics. Its a staggard set of 19's. What color do you guys think i should paint them? Flat black? gloss black? gun metal?

    They are silver with a polished lip right now. I am not a big fan of the whole polished lip look

    Re: dolphin grey B6..... what color 19's?

    I'd get the face of the wheels done in a satin or flat black, and get the lips painted as close to the same colour as the car.

    Try getting someone with some photo-shop skills to show you some options before you dive in.

    Gloss black and leave the polished lip.

    If I could have had a polished lip on my rims I would have but there was no real lip to polish.

    Re: dolphin grey B6..... what color 19's?

    id leave them the color they are right now. they will look good. Then paint them when you get sick of them and you can fall in love with the wheels all over again. Just my $0.02

    Did you pain them with the rubber on?

    How did you prep the wheels for the paint? any sanding or buffing needed?
