Bronze 17's?

Should I paint my wheels bronze? I haven't really seen many red cars with bronze wheels, and I'm terrible at photoshop so I can't see for myself... anyone have any opinions about it?

Bronze rims on red is gorgeous.. though it looks even better on white cars.

I think bronze would look good. Matt's wheels are more of a gold colour than bronze, but I love the pairing with his rally red em2.

^Yes, that's an EL conversion, it's like an 04-05 conversion on an 01-03, the entire front end needs to be swapped over not just the bumper.

Re: Bronze 17's?

ahhhh ok, I gotcha. That's too bad. I would totally try and do that if it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Not to mention it would be hard to source the parts outside of Canada...

Re: Bronze 17's?

Matt's wing is a custom fitted Mugen part, between buying the wing itself and paint I guarantee he spent well over $1000 on it. A little to rich for my blood.

I've seen the DC5-R wing on an inca pearl em2 before, it looked fantastic!

Whoaa!
I haven't seen that picture in a long time, thanks for posting it!
I was wrong about it being inca peal, it's actually mugen gold.

The wing, the colour, those brembos..
