Title: Anthracite Monza's?
Post by: rdfcpete on July 20, 2009, 11:32:13 pm

Anyone had their Monza's refurbed or sprayed in proper anthracite or a similar Gun Metal dark Grey?

Toying with the idea of having mine (Monza I 17") reconditioned and wondered if there's pics or photoshops of this, either on the Monza I's or II's?  :smiley:

Thanks guys,
Pete.

Maybe not massively relevant to the thread, but as an alternative:

Imo they're gorgeous ^.
Would they fit with ease or is there quite a bit of fitment work required?

Did you find an answer to this Keith, specifically a wheel color change? I'm intrigued to know  :happy2:
