Bronze and graphite wheels

Postby MazdaTom » Mon Feb 16, 2009 9:14

Can someone photoshop my wheels bronze and graphite for me? I've been thinking that this summer I may paint them- the silver gets dirty and shows it easily.

So one set bronze and one set graphite please.

Thanks.

These are about the best pics I have of the car with these wheels. Hopefully they work.

this for your winter wheels I assume? I would think graphite would look better and hide more dirt.... imho.... ;)

Oh yeah. I'm not going to touch the Enkeis with any sort of paint.

I am kinda leaning toward the graphite myself.

Cool. I think the graphite really looks the best for looking the worst (if you know what I mean). Thanks Albert.

Yep. Graphite (gunmetal) wheels coming to a Protege near you- sometime this summer, to be remounted again sometime late next fall......

I'll have the entire summer to paint the wheels so I'm not going to rush it.
