Post by: Greeners on February 20, 2009, 06:30:45 pm: ^^^^^ Pink? :surprised:
Title: Re: New idea......not everyones taste
Post by: RedRobin on February 20, 2009, 06:42:28 pm: ....

Red would connect visually very nicely with the red 'lipstick' on the front upper grill.

I like both the gold and the pink though. Electric blue? Anodised metal colours look uber-cool imo.
Title: Re: New idea......not everyones taste
Post by: E30m3 on February 20, 2009, 07:17:46 pm: Red would look very nice as would gold, but anthracite will look very classy. :happy2:

Also your wheels being reps Joe are they genuine split rims ? or just 1 mould made to look like two ?
