Default West Bend Trailer shoot. (pics inside)

So after dragging out my $200 dollar wheels I thought I would put a color combo on it that no one has. The tires I got really cheap and they have a lot of tread on them. So with them being such a low profile (which I dont prefer) I painted the lip FM. The actual color of the spokes is a Lambo color. (Arancio Atlas) I believe it is called. It is a 3 stage paint set up. I do like the offset of the rims though because I am getting more of that coveted flush look. Well here are some pics.








Next on my list is to do something about that damn loud Hi Power.

the color scheme really works well except the calipers man they kinda look busy, the red mixes with the orange a bit too much i'd paint them black but thats just me, are you gonna paint the interior to match the outside i think that would look sick

Car looks nice. I would paint the calipers FM to match the rest of the car. Would be subtle but noticeable.

Alright I will do the calipers today if I have time. I do agree with you on them being too busy with the red. For the spacers, you think 5mm will work for the rear? Im thinking about adding some of that color into the interior as well. Just thinking of where to make it not look to ricey. I do have some orange fogs that kinda tie into that color. I will take some front shots when I get home tonight.

my friend gary's toyota t100 is black with blaze orange accents. (pinstripe, windshield wipers, antenna...) then again, he's kind of a redneck

So I had time to paint the calipers which does make it look a lot better. I will be taking some pics if I can get out of work early. I still wanna know if you think 5mm spacers would be enough.
