RedTwilight Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 sell it, buy a C4 vette Then he'd have to make the same choice for the wheels on the C4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 If you like the orange you should powder coat the wheels orange. If you get it done, step back and say "holy fuck, I love it" then it matters 0% what everybody else thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SublimeRT Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 I came across this on IG. I'm not a big fan of dipping cars but for testing ideas I think it's a decent option. Maybe this could help you out before taking the wheels off and breaking them down and all that.I think the copper/burnt orange goes well with silver. Silver is pretty neutral and most any color could be made to work well with it, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RideTech_Ryan Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 idk if this is any better for "copper" I think the color matching cage idea would be perfect to tie that in. It wouldn't be over too much over the top but still enough flash do get even more "Damn" comments than you already do. After not seeing it for a couple of days I like it even more than before!Plus you could color match the air tank when you go air lolYou could even to hard stainless line in the trunk for the air setup. Kind of a throw back lowrider look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTwilight Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 copper air setup.jpg Thought this air setup was bad ass. Maybe not in a mustang but bad ass none the less I'm not much of an air ride guy, but I really like that set up! Maybe because it looks sooooo Steampunk.

RideTech_Ryan Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 From what I read the tank is actually a fire extinguisher from the 1930's. I have seriously been considering some sort of hard line setup in my Saleen just for a clean subtle look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95riosnake Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Per his post on FB, his powder coater got back to him after having the wheels several days saying they didn't realize there was a clear powder coat over the brushed centers (well...no shit, of course there is. My HRE's have a clear powder coat on the centers too) and their price was now going to be $300/wheel. So yea, I think he's in the market for a new powder coater now.

Tony Posted September 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 well i'm extremely comfortable with painting. i feel i have a pretty good amount of skill with it and i may save $$ and paint the wheels. i feel like with the way i maintain wheels i can keep them looking great for a long time. the key is prep and choosing the right product....color wise lol. i may go dark on the centers....like dark grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
