Spare alloy refurb, what colour would you pick ?
Discussion
I got another set of alloys so I can keep one set standard (Turbo twists) and powder coat another set to suit the car better.
Its a 993 TT polar slver, the bright silver just dont seem to go with the silver/blue colour of the car. Anyway I have two sets so might as well have a colour.
I thinking of either:
Gloss Black
Charcoal Anthrcite
Duck Blue (light blue, am I mad, may not go with the red calipers, but it would suit larger yellow ones )
But your suggestions would be great, what do you think I should go with? Gloss black is my favorite so far, should I have the outer rim poilished?
See: www.lap-tab.co.uk/alloywheels.php this site has loads of pics of turbo twists.
I have 500 colours to choose from at the powder coating place (not lap-tab).

Wow, thanks a lot, thats blummin fantastic.
Yep the duck blue was a silly idear, but the anthracite looks fantastic.
If you could do a medium to dark blue metalic, that would be nice to see.
I have heard that chromed alloys weaken the actual alloy over time and can be dangereous, does anyone know if that goes for the smoked chrome and anthracite etc..
Thanks again C2look.

Thanks again C2Look,
Yep just confirmed I dont want that colour (met blue).
Anthracite (or dark silver) / gloss black with chrome rim,
Do you think a black silver would go with a chromed rim?
Its a tough choice, I think it might come down to price, depends what they charge for the chrome rim.
Im really excited now, those pics have got me in the mood, I think I will drop them off tomorrow and see if they have any examples there.

My thoughts exactley PGM, like I said earlier, I have two sets so will keep one set standard silver.
I think I have to follow my gut instinct and go for gloss black with a silver rim ( I havent actually asked if they do the polished rims yet). I will post the results in a week or two.
