Some colour combos, not on an NB obviously.

silver on silver

bronze on silver

I would go gunmetal

It's very hard to replicate volk bronze, cause it's anodized, so you can't just buy a spray can.

and the wheel guru is back. Thanks for those Phill

i think the gunmetal could be a winner!

time to look up some powercoaters

and for some new mazdaspeed decals

pics on the car...not the best day for pictures but you get the idea..

ill be picking up some blue RAYS nuts this evening

might get some 5mm spacers eventually just to push the rims out a bit more...other than that, the offset is much better than the rims i had on before

looking good! For a second I thought it was my car :lol:

With the side skirts, the wheels look a whole lot better on your car... needs a lip though!

I'd be tempted to leave them that colour - looks good!

I looks good as is, though the gunmetal or bronze would look pretty cool too.

yeah they look ok as-is.
my preference is bronze if you must recolour, but i'm a sucker for bronze rims.

or just get them in whatever colour is closest to brake dust. :lol:

16th July

I changed my clutch slave cylinder the other day, so i though i would test it out with a run through the national park....its times like this when i wish i had my big camera, not just my phone... anyways the following pics skeak for themselves i guess

some nice black marks

whoops

i went and had a look, the motor still had some heat in it, so it mush have happened recently. No one in the car, not much i could do. So continued on my journey south and happened to see some cops down near the Waterfall turnoff...luckily i want speeding, they had the gun out

. Anyways pulled over and told them about it, they wernt really interested...oh well. other than that was a good morning
