Post a picture of your vehicle here Part 5 (don't quote pictures, 24h ban!)

Here's another quick and rough edit:





Bigger version here



I can see what ye guys are saying about it being too black but I kinda like the blackness. I do also quite like the contrast of the clean silver wheels, especially as the chrome trim on the car kinda runs around the car at the bottom (and the silver chrome and silver wheels kinda keeps that theme running).

But I think the black looks that tad more aggressive or ominous or something and matches up well with the black car and tinted windows. Decisions, decisions


EDIT: I kinda wish he didn't say anything about colour to be honest. If I never had the choice I wouldn't even be thinking about it!

Last night I thought two tone would be interesting but realised when i woke up that it'd be pretty horrible.

I rarely see black wheels about the place, but I do think they look nice when I see them (depending what they're on, i think tiny black wheels, like 14/15" wheels, dont look too great, but larger wheels generally look nice in my opinion). When I was offered the choice to change colour, black was the first thing that came into my head (as I had considered it before with the 407, but thought it'd be a madly expensive venture, and that car was costing an arm and a leg as it was on repairs alone).

I'll see how I feel in the morning and if I'm still swaying I might go black. it'll cost me 200 to revert back to silver, if i hate black, but I think I might like it. I'm definitely drawn to it at the moment when I think of it.


Speaking of C5's and wheels though, I came across a C5 on my travels today that looked pretty good, I thought (better looking in person than in the picture).





I rarely see C5's around the place, and rarer again to see the estate version, so when I seen one with different wheels and such I thought it was interesting. If it was mine I think I'd spray the roof rails white, though (or swap them over for chrome ones). Same for the grille.

It would appear that most (if not everyone) advises against the black wheels KKV but then again you're going to go right ahead and do it anyway, even though it will look shoite. Offset is really odd looking with what you have done with it btw.

Positioning of the wheels looked a lot worse before the spacers in fairness.

I woke up this morning still undecided but kinda leaning towards black. I've been googling and googling pictures of wheels on cars trying to decide. I think it's cos I rarely ever see black wheels on cars, and when I do, I do tend to like them. Not sure why, but I just think they look good in general.
