Hello all.

I've decided to ditch the idea of 17" rims (mainly because 16" are better for acceleration and MPG).

Instead I've decided to get some standard VRS 16" refurbed in a diff colour.

But cant decide what colour.

I've ruled out white, I've seen Skud's car and although I can see the attraction it's not my thing.

So I've decided to go for either gloss black or a dark grey, like Honda Gunmetal Grey.

Pics of Fabia's on black and gunmetal alloys please

PS here is a pic of my car if someone could PHOTOSLARP the wheels in black and grey would be awesomenesss

Dark grey with a red metal flake in the lacquer?

Johnny50 has done it, have a look

think gloss black would be too deep a shade for the car.

Gunmetal woukd suit the car me thinks.

Davy

I like the look of this one

Thats mine that you posted

My other option that i'm probably going to do, is Bronze.

Here's an old photoshop i done ages ago before my other mods were done.

Decided what I'm gonna do.

Gloss black alloys

Black Grille

Black Rear lights

Dark smoke rear tints

Coilovers

Stealth

Stelth is good. Shame mines yellow!

I'd go for smoked chrome wheels, like this finish:

could anyone do a photoshop on my car for me?

gloss black and gunmetal?

Im liking the bronze.....

Hmm... i wonder if my steels would look good in that colour?

Hello all.

I've decided to ditch the idea of 17" rims (mainly because 16" are better for acceleration and MPG).

Go for the 17s then, because if you drop the aspect ratio to keep the overall tyre circumference the same then acceleration and MPG will be preserved.

These are my black ones...

They look smart

keez them wheels look immense. loving the logo on them. ive been wanting my whhels doing gloss black, was looking at best part of £400 though

Silver...

I have gone for stealth.

But you can have too much black.

Black wheels look poor on a black car IMO.

Even gunmetal grey doesnt look amazing.

I'm keeping mine silver, and advise you to do the same.!

:eek:

No way would i pay that.

Place up here powdercoats them etc for £190 !!

Unless you have 18's or something ?

Yeah, black is too much for me, though I can see the attraction. Think I'll go for something like Johnny50's but possibly a touch lighter and glossier.

Mine are actually quite shiny when clean !

If you like, i'll get it washed, and take a few closer pics if you like ?

They're a funny colour, not quite black.

Yeah, go on then

waiting for them pics johnny

like the last option,tho the only vrs that isn't a real vrs is the mk2 octavia,the mk 1 octy and mk 1 fabia were both used in wrc,therfor they are both REAL vrs's

I know, it was just a little **** take of the feelings of many owners of MK1 octavia's

waiting for them pics johnny
