spray paint I'm assuming. with the black rims it doesn't make it look as flush as before. the silver made it look like it was more flush with the fender and quarter panel. you should of invested in some plasti dip spray paint (that way you could of taken it off like a sticker, if you didn't like the black color).

plasti dip = bonzai's current obsession.. lol jk tongue.gif

timmy your car is full of win, thats why your in my sig and the rims look pretty sweet black (although i might be biased to black rims on red cars haha)

Yeah i know, im still pretty unhappy with my rear wheels, but i guess a change is good.

AND...... it IS plasti-dip! so i can rip it off whenever i like tongue.gif
I have a rim sticker coming so i have a silver lip, so that may compliment it a bit and make it look a bit more flush maybe haha.

It was my first time doing it... came out pretty rough. Could probably have used a few more layers, or good layers at that. I was unsure if i was applying it to light or too heavy.

No idea what happened, car just died on me and wouldn't start.
The tow guy was a nice one luckily, got planks of wood to get it up, with say 3mm clearance of ripping it off lol.

So far, I'm replacing the distribute cap and coil today, see how it goes.

^ Turns out it was my Ignition Coil that sh*t itself. So i replaced that, the dizzy cap and rotor button. Running all good now!!

That's a clean install.

I absolutely love your celica smile.gif how hard was it to remove the orange from the JDM tails, much risk involved? Cheers
@Payne: Wasnt tooooo difficult. All you need is a hot knife (soldering iron with a thin blade tip) than you just cut in the back and take it out, and glue it back on.
Or you can go the other way, and heat the whole tail light up in an oven, and remove the glass, but thats a bit of an effort haha.

Another pic of the boot, showing my needed tools tongue.gif

Those wheels are beautiful... but can't help feeling they need to be another colour..... Darker grey, or satin black, or dark bronze......

Silver on red just doesn't sit right for me.... smile.gif

Damn good point about the color Luke.

I HAVE always been keen on bronze rims. But a few people keep tossing me either side of the idea.
I've had silver/gun metal.
Black atm i'm really liking... so im not sure >< These style rims ive seen in black/gun metal look good!

If anyone has any other suggestions of rims, plz post up! haha Not looking to spend BIG bucks, but willing nonetheless smile.gif

|Flickr|Facebook|Tumblr|Progress...|
I'd def go with something a little darker.
The gun metal on red looks really good IMO, but maybe thats casue thats what i have on my car.
The bronze on red would probably look good too, but i agree that silvers a little to bright.

I personally would deff go with these. Something about them just sets the car off imo.

^ Still thinking of these similar rims. That way, if i want to go black again, i can easily plasti-dip them again tongue.gif
