i def think you should leave them as-is. At least not gold or bronze.

I'm not pro with photoshop, but I wanted to do something for you that wasn't mustard yellow to give you an idea of what gold would look like (Keep in mind I'm no pro)...



I didn't feel like piecing out the rotors, so you have gold rotors now too

If you do go bronze, do a darker one like the color JSutter painted his stockers. The more yellow/gold the worse it looks.

Actually, thats more gold then bronze, although I agree they do look good. Everyone always claims gold to be bronze. Bronze is a bit darker, with a slight red tint to it.

while were on the topic of photoshopping....I'm not sure if it's even possible but can someone photoshop a carbon fiber hood, mirrors, and lip with the color of the wheels above (the bronze ones in the first photoshoped picture)....I plan on getting this all done in a month or so (already have the mirrors) since my lip is gone due to a truck tire being hit at 70mph on the highway by my front end.

In the stickies....

Two cans paint, one can clear should be fine. You can always buy extra and return, not exactly costly and they wont hassle you about bringing back unopened product.

There I did the easy part and I also darkened it considerably to add more effect especially once the CF is on there. However, I dont think that CF will look good at all with that color.

Gunmetal or black would sound more your thing IMO.

personally i dont think it looks good. i think the only car that really pulls off the bronze/gold rims on black is the subaru sti/wrx.
