Whats up people.
Ok I have a slight problem maybe someone who has some color scheme matching ability can help. OK I have this 09 Dark slate maxima and I want to customize it but not like everyone elses dark slate. i've already heard about gunmetal and black rims etc etc but too many owners does that. I want something different but also looks good maybe like chrome and red rims of gunmental rims with yellow caliber etc etc.

anyway heres my maxi with nothing to it.





My wife says it look bad ,so please tell me your suggestions and what could enhance my maxi thanks

Oh yeah I will b adding a eibach kit too

 

Yea man stick with black or chrome everything else will look terrible. Just do other things like paint the door handle or carbon fiber something. Just take a little of something from everybody.

 

never thought about carbon fiber, this dark slate color makes it hard to be original but thanks for your reply

 

It's easy to be original with any color. more about how much you want the car to stand out?

 

I really like the last pic with the gunmetal and red rims i might have to get gunmetal and paint the lip red

 

Start with gunmetal then take a look at it and photoshop it and see what the actual wheels you have would look like

 

Brushed gunne metal should look sick.

 

whats the difference between brushed gunmetal and regular gunmetal? But Im really thinking going wit gunmetal but I dont want just gunmetal only. I looking for a color that would look good along with that

 

a 6th gen owner has g37 rims on his black car that are red plasti dipped, car looks good, you should try that to see how you like the color

 

ok thanks

 

do white wheels....i am a big fan of white wheels so give it a shot

 

i agree with your wife

 

^ hahahaha

Hey, just tried PS the white wheels and no woody....so skip that idea...it didnt work as good as i thought

 

ACTUALLY...depending on the wheels, white would work phenomenonly

 

^ true, i jut tried the stock

 

Yeah im starting to agree with her too lol. And i never thought about white i'll look into that thanks

 

One of the regulars here has a white Max in his sig file with really nice black rims that have an evenly sized white lip. Not too garish as red but the contrast really jumps out. maybe he'll see this and post just so you can see what I mean.

Edit: I just found it in another thread...




I think that is a really nice look. But since you are gray instead of white, maybe some other combo would work, but you can see there is just enough contrast to stand out, but not overkill. I think your p-shop red rims are a little too much, just my opinion.

 

Yeah that red is way too much the more i look at it. I got the idea on what ur saying , i might do a gunmetal face and chrome lip or all gunmetal, black is out the question played out for me. When i get home i'll play around with PS and take these eye sore pics off lol. Thanks for all ya'll opinions

 

actually...if you do black wheels...black out the chrome trim and slam it...you could have a vicious 7th gen on your hands...

 

Its your car... but...please dont do the red wheels...

 

Ok had to remove the red rims
