Wooo! Another Contour thread. : )

[328istothebone]

So just got some contours that I am gonna repaint/powdercoat.

I have an alpine white 328is (soon to be 3.2ed :buttrock) anyways.. I did have the moldings painted white to match but I am going back to m3 black moldings so that being said should I do these rims... (hope nobody minds if I use their picture lol.)

OR

Matte black AKA flat black. Sorry no picture because I couldn't find one for the life of me..makes me think it hasn't been done too many times!

I personally like the bronze ones in the first picture and think they would stand out alot on the alpine white. I already have some voxx powdercoated black on there and was thinking I rather go with something different. But sometimes the old reliable black does enough. Let me know your opinions! Thanks to everyone that will give constructive criticism!

the black will just make them look like steelies.

I've always like campers bronze color...I've seen a few shades done that unfortunately just looks like brake dust.

[adamnur]

Looks like rust...







uh oh.

[328istothebone]

My mind keeps thinking bronze! Lol. I just think on a white car they would stand out so much more and that makes the whole car stand out. MAYBE a polished lip with the bronze? HMMM...

How do people not like that bronze? I love it! Dang I hope you don't mind because I'm pretty sure I'm stealing your rims stabby haha. Bronze powa!

[valley325m]

bronze is the way to gooo!

[DeM3n]

I think only certain colors can pull bronze off. I certainly don't think mine would.

[Crazy 13immer]

I have bronze paint sitting in my garage.. but I've been debating what color I want to refinish the DSI's in. I think they would look good bronze... but in some of those pics, the paint color looks like a ton of brake dust or rust.

Maybe I should just do gold? Or white, like Beastin's.

This makes me want to paint my contours. :buttrock

[328istothebone]

Nobody has pics of this color bronze on a e36 alpine white? I am still debating between what color I wanna do on my car. I want this but it seems really risky. and then raceboy614 had to post his car up and that got me liking those on a white e36 haha. But with a polished lip better. Opinions? : )

[JZMIII]

thats your opinion

my very strong opinion :confused
