Hope the op doesn't mind but a pinched a pic off here as I dont have a proper side pic of my car. Thinking of having my spiders refurbed and painted gold, also may have grill surround done the same. What do you think? would make a change from black which seems to be the way most of the red Octi's go. All comments welcome.

Gash!

But I don't like black wheels either!

I think Brima had gold wheels on his Mk2.

Not to my liking but it's your car so go ape

Really don't like the gold on red combo.

Back to the drawing board then

Don't give up so easily

If no one went aginst peer pressure we'd never see anything unique

I almost did gold on my red Fabia

In the end though i buckled to swmbo pressure and went for black though

Hehe i dont hate them gold actually sorry but i wont lie :p

Got a couple of mins and a copy of Photoshop so here's my tuppence:

White is okay

Grey is great

Ooooo i do like the white i was thinking gloss black but i do like the white

The white looks great but would stay looking clean for about a minute, I think the grey just look like they're really dirty lol. I actually quite like them in gold but the Mrs doesn't:..............gold it is then

Bkack , white or gold it is then

Aslong as you go for a scooby kindve light gold like the photoshop

I prefer the white, my mate has a rover 827 coupe with dark grey metallic alloys and they look really nice, might be worth a play with photoshop?

White looks best, if coat them in loads of layers of wax when they are new they will be easier to keep clean

This makes the christmas baby jesus cry.

I quite like the idea of nimbus grey with red.

white

Maybe more of a bronzy-gold?

Kind of going down the Subaru/jap route with the gold/bronze wheels.
