im planning to get another set of rims for my car. kennykid2002 hates my rims so im using that excuse to get another pair.


im really digging the Konig Feather.

im getting matte black and think the look real clean...not tooooo ricy.


heres what they look like:











question 1: so what do u guys thing of it? too ricy? how would it look on my ricebucket?

question 2: should i get 16 or 17"????

id like the lightness of 16 but i think im fine with a couple lbs added.

I like your current wheels, they flow with the 7thgen body lines well

Is that BMW gills I see?


And I like the konigs on your car, but why paint your car white?
It looks sexi black,

Or are you trying to copy my taffeta white?

Anyways, 16 will be good, but white on black...well thats preference, up to you
Konigs look good on 7th gens

your current rims are sick i would keep those instead of getting new ones. put your money else-where.

I like the rims you have its the body kit and fake air vents that make your car look like crap not the rims. Take off all that bullshit.

 
Rep Power: 354

i know. tell me about it. i hate them....but they were apart of the deal from a mamber here: trade his whole front end for stock.


dont worry, i will have oem finder when i repaint my car. this crap is so embarassing.

I think you should keep it black.. Looks sick.. and I'd say 17s.. just my preference though.. Dunno why.

 
Rep Power: 354

oh dang that looks not half bad

 
Rep Power: 292

Yeah, it looks really nice with silver

Keep your car black

If you're getting a paint job because of paint damage and chips
Just get a royal blue pearl on black paint
Then just get rid of the gills,

and BAM! instant sexiness

Royal blue pearl on black paint.. I think I found my new paint scheme

 
Rep Power: 292

Ra!
I really wanted to do that paint color...

But then I really like white after having a white car, So I was debating either that color, or maybe the starfire pearl that's on Lexus, I love that color

Or maybe the black sapphire from Lexus...
Or or or! The blue streak metallic from Corolla S's

Gahh, Toyota has so many good color choices

Satin's where it's at.

The Ferrari and Audi are both done with vinyl, not paint. I'm considering going with vinyl since it only costs around $1000.

 
Rep Power: 292

Eh, I've seen vinyl wraps, They arent all that

And besides, you have to get a REALLY good company to do it, or it'd start wrinkling and edges peel off later on

PS. Why is this thread locked now?

 
Rep Power: 286

I opened the thread, one of us, must have locked it by accident.

Vinyl's like anything else, theres awesome quality and terrible quality, for $1k you can get really good quality vinyl. I've seen the A4 in person, it looks almost as good as paint and it was a DIY. No way am I painting my whole car, that would cost almost what the cars worth haha

I hope I don't accidentally ban you with my noobish skills, sdaidoji!

JKJK!!

 
Rep Power: 368

Harharhar, i was thinking exactly the same!

 
Rep Power: 368

sleepy,

don't paint it white, just come over here up north. no need to paint !

 
Rep Power: 292

Haha, good stuf...

With all that snow, I would expect you to at least have a garage =/

I could never expose my car to those extreme elements

 
Rep Power: 286

HaHa your definitely from California! Those aren't extreme elements thats just winter and the car is exposed to it every time you drive. Plus, a house with a garage is a lot more expensive, especially in the city.

Back on topic,

Are you going to keep the front bumper when you paint?

 
Rep Power: 368

yup.
and my house is in TN (pretty sure except for snow that temperatures were pretty much same TN and here today, though, from the news). just 10 below freezing.
Sleepy,

you can see that i also am using the black/black combination, love it, but i got hit twice in parking lots because the guy could not see my car at night...
rear bumper and front fender...

i love how u guys completly high jacked my thread. but its all good.

im set on some 17. and im going to paint it white for sure. i dont like black cars. aspen white or soemthing. mmm. yummy.

Keep what ya got, the new rims are a downgrade.

 
Rep Power: 354

how so triz?

 
Rep Power: 0

the wheels u have now really go with the car. paint it first than see about the wheels. and i lovee white cars too, so i see where your going with that.

 
Rep Power: 286

Buy the Konigs, and sell me your Rotas!

shipping to canada would be a bitch

I can use a spare set of rims when I decide to get my buddy clubs re-done

 
Rep Power: 286

Thats why I never ship things to Canada :P

I ship them to Washington and pick them up myself, instantly cuts shipping in half.
