So what do you guys think of my snowflakes. Youve all seen the bronze ones that are on it now. But im thinking of either getting them powdercoated gold, or black with the polished lip. Tell me whatcha guys think?

| Dude! No black! I've been digging that bronzed look more and more everytime I see new pix of your car. If you get them powder coated, see if they can match that color. If not, leave 'em the hell alone! There perf right now. |

| Damn man everyone has been saying that. I originally wanted them gold but all they had at the parts stores was bronze so i went with it. I like it so i guess i wont complain, just still wondering what gold would look like. But the last time i told someone about it was my friend and he said he thought it looked good, but when he saw it rolling down the street one day, he said it looked PERFECT with my car. Makes me wanna leavem alone-lol |

Mike,
Look at the pics I posted in the engine forum regarding the TT exhaust. One of the pics shows a little of my first wagon, also Gambia red like yours, with a back wheel showing. It had hubcaps (I hadn't gotten around to wheels yet...) that were gold with the polished lip look - just to give you an idea. The bronze is better by far, IMO. The gold is kinda pimp blingy, the bronze is F-ing TOUGHNESS.
Wait- I might have a better pic with the gold... Let me go find it and stick it in here...
OK, they're not such great pics. The day was really overcast, but here they are:
and the other one I was talking about before:
The pics aren't that good, but the gold was not the win. |

Damn jeremy thats a pretty sweet find!!! I was checking my tires yesterday and noticed that they are getting pretty close to the wear bars. Havent been driving on them 6months but thats what u get when u roll on a soft compound. So once my tires wear out ill be running these wheels on Goodyear Eagle F1s 15". Gonna go ahead and run 15s since 14s wont clear 11inch brakes.

Are you actually going to get those with the red lip? I'm not so sure that would look right on the Gambia Red paint. Sorry, just not a real fan of those, personally. I will really miss the bronze 'flakes on Foxy...
