Steph is torn about what color to powdercoat the z33 wheels for her s14. Its just about spring and we'll be putting them on the car soon so they need to get powdercoated pronto.

Here's a couple pictures of them on a zenki so if we could get a variety of colors to get an idea I'd greatly appreciate it





And if anyone is feeling overly crafty....want to photoshop a kouki front end with lip onto the zenki when coloring the wheels? Thanks

^ Jerry, I think this is inspiration for Steph's Kouki.

Perfect color matching, and looks great with the rear wing, rear lip, sideskirts, and painted front lip.

I'd recommend going silver, gunmetal, or maybe gray with the wheels. Anything else will not look as good IMO

Thanks for the pics. We can't do silver though. They were badly rashed up and I've sanded and prepped them so the original color is out, plus she doesn't want silver.

Sombody want to chop the pics of that kouki with the wheels different colors and make the front lip black?

Thanks!

Already have the front lip, which will stay black, some bomex rear aero, the factory skirts, and will most likely do the jdm rear spoiler this summer. So its already going to be somewhat similiar

Yes and no.....

No pink or purple or anything like that though haha.

I'm thinking grey, gunmetal, gold, bronze, various silvers, etc etc. Normal wheel kinda colors. I'm sure she'll reply at some point though.

Grey, gunmetal, gloss black, gold, bronze, maybe other silvers, any typical wheel colors that you might think would look good.

Okay, so dark is a bad idea, but I think a light gunmetal or silver would look GOOD .

I should have kept those ... rather than having the "delivered" to Jerry.
