I just saw a "Rides" episode on these realistic flame paint jobs. Anyway, the guy uses several candy colors which are basically transparent colors. Have anyone considered using these kinds of paints? If you were to polish it up real good and spray with, let's say candy gold, it would look this.
Instead of the regular gold paint which doesn't really look all that good.
I imagine you could get a candy black or other dark colors and it would still have that big shine on them. Anyone thought about that?

Just so you guys dont hang me, I sent those pics of my car to Arachnotron yesterday. They arent the best, thats for sure! Damn shitty camera! It looks VERY similar to the pic just posted of the black one with the black TT II's. Mine has a better stance IMO, and blacked out corners, 3rd brake light, blackouts, Collector edition center piece and black WS6 badge. I also have red calipers, and cross drilled/slotted rotors. Hard to tell from my crappy pics though Also I think the pic of the car with the Black TT II's has 17.9.5's in back and I have 17x 11's with Nittos. Makes somewhat of a difference.

You can buy removable covers, like mentioned here:

Or you could spray them with the Nightshades tinted paint.

I just got my TT2's done, I went a little different and powdercoated the spokes and the cap all black and left the lips polished. I would post pics but don't know how? Also I used the Nightshade and it looks good, especially with a black car.

I also used Nightshades on my corner markers and third brake light. Goes on easy and looks great! Kotcls1 lets see those pics of your wheels! Im kinda interested on how they look!

For your viewing pleasure, what a98ws6's rims would look like with black lugs and black centercap tabs. Also, removed the rust. What do you guys think? Better as is or does the extra paint work make it better. Just trying to get some feedback.

a98ws6, I hate to say it, but those are awfully small pics. Is that from the camera or does Cardomain limit their size? I'd like to see some bigger, better pics if you have them.
From what I can make out, it looks real good.

lol a98ws6 and my car are gonna look almost exactly the same! Black tt2 rims, white inlays in the back, black covers over tailights. But never the less you got good taste! Car looks really smooth
