Calling all 4th gens with black painted sawblades...

I've tried searching everywhere and can't find any pictures of 4th gens with painted black sawblades, so if you have any pics, please post them...

I'm thinking I'm going to take all day tomorrow to paint my blades gloss black. If anyone wants to give me any encouragment or try to stop me from doing this....I'm definately open to suggestions, comments, critism....

Thanks guys

if you mean wheels, then yeah, mine are totally gloss black. My car is pearl white and I like the contrast. I also have black taillights and the black one piece headlights.
This pic is before the new headlights, brakes, and lowering, but you get the idea...what do you think?

Difficult to tell how they loook from that picture. Looks like you are missing tires/wheels.

not all of us are fond of the chrome lips, you know? I saw a pearl white evo with gloss black wheels and it looked pretty sweet. It really does look like a different car when it's lowered and looked at from the side, but that's the only photo I have at the moment. We all have our preferences, so let's all give this guy an honest opinion. What color is your car?

I have a pearl white 98, i like dark gray/graphite rims on a white max better than blacks. I was considering blacks at one point, but i think graphite looks better on a pearl white

uhhh, yeah.

lol jk. i definitely feel you bro. if you have never seen something look good, it means just that. you have never SEEN it. that doesn't mean it can't happen. just because it conjures up memories of aesthetic night mares doesn't mean thats all it can ever be.

that being said, it doesn't mean it will look good either. i think your chances are poor with factory wheels regardless of how you dress them up.

even the most well executed black/white leave something to be desired as far as i'm concerned. my rule is 1 neutral tone and 1 color.

It doesnt look too bad considering I have silver painted calipers that match the centercaps and the custom cut mirror tint "SE" in my rear port window. The rest of my car is black.

post pics of what it looks like during the day. The all black look isn't really for me, but it doesn't look bad. My friends would expect me to step out of that car wearing a darth vader mask or something.

I think gunmetal makes a good contrast with white not really down with total black.
