Can anyone photoshop it on a black fabis vrs?

Also my front headlight bulb has just gone this morning what is a good replacement/upgrade?

Thanks

NICE alloys mate :thumbup: What size are they - I am planning on 205/40/17. And tyres, my fave's are TOYO Proxy T1-R.

sorry, no photoshop...

(have only just ordered my vRS so need to wait till October to drive it, let alone get nicer alloys.)

Lights, now, I've tried loads and loads (hard suspension on my last car meant they broke a lot :D ).

Best ones I thought were OSRAM Silverstar (50% brighter) or slightly cheaper Philips Vision Plus (also 50% brighter but not quite as good). Best to stick to these makes. I've seen cheapo lights and they really are less solid. Also, do not go over to blue shades, they actually give you less light than white (white is fuller spectrum of light). Hope this helps... For pricing/ buying, surf the web I would suggest.

Black looks bad on the pic as it's so small, but here's the silver.

Think Black might be a bit much on a black car. But if you have a decent pic of your car close up I can try the blacks for you. The Wheel is an odd angle on the pic so it will probably look a little strange photoshopped onto a car, but you'll get the idea.

Cheers guys! :thumbup:

I've had my eye on the silver alloys for ages but haven't been able to find any in the right size and fit! But now I can get either black or silver, which to choose!! :rolleyes: Cheers mort for that I'll have a quick look and see if I have a better picture somewhere for the black ones, but so far I'm sold on the silver :D

Is this a better picture to work on? :confused:

Mike - go to www.powerbulbs.com and get some Osram Silverstars ;) I can also recommend the Philips Rallye (100W) bulbs too for the main beam, although obviously you should only use these offroad :rofl:

Btw, anthracite for me ... especially cos it won't matter how much brake dust you get on them, they won't look dirty ;)

Sorry about the green, but I needed to give a hint of brakes without having to draw them in for you, It shows the general idea. They probably won't be that shiny in real life though :D.

Prefer the silver in looks though. But what do I know, I'm gonna buy meself some shiny white wheels when the bank says ok!

Cheers Mort :thumbup: I'm going for the silver too, but that black is still so tempting :confused: I think white will look good on your red furby ;)

Cool, i started somethin' here... :D Taka taka...

Silver definitely looks better I think. Especially on a black car.

Can't get excited about black wheels. Always remind me of the pikey kid at school who wore black socks in PE when everyone else wore white.

Second the motion for Osram Silverstar bulbs. Seem to last a bit longer than the Philips VisionPlus in my experience

Cheers guys! :thumbup:

Where did you get the 'silver' door handles?

Bulbs have been ordered and should be here by the weekend :D

I should be getting the alloys at the end of the month, and then it's the choice of tyres Toyo T1-R's are on the top of the list so far

Door handles I got from http://www.jhmbuttco.com/
