color does snot really matter because it will be covered up with whatever color your gonna paint your car. If anything I would go with gray primer.

well if your gonna "rock" the color don't go gray, do it black, and get a tip that will spray fatter than the stock tips that come with the cans cuz those will end up leaving lines of the coats you did. a more wider spray is always better..go to your local graffiti shop or ask some friends that might know about graffiti and to give u some better tips that fit the cans your using...and there has to be a graffiti shop in baldwin park..lol..

well there you go throw a NY fat or German jumbo and you have some nice sprays..before u buy wheels make sure u know the color of the car so the wheels u buy match the color of the car..its looks clean through a blurry camera phone but its not that good looking up front..but i dont care, i care about what it can do...
