Love your car. What springs do you have?
Thanks mate but I didn't on here your that, thought you could use it for photoshop as my wheels are shadow chrome.
Springs are supersport. 30mm drop I think mate.

Looking at that last photoshop I think that's your best option. Of course others will say different which is what the forum is all about. Just think it would be a good middle ground looking at the others you've done.

Man I don't usually comment on people's cars but boy there are some boring old farts on this thread.Do you want to swim with the rest or be your own man ? Either way is fine but really that's the question.

I agree with most, really nice wheel but would look its best in a shadow chrome with your paint imo.

You got me! Didn't read all the replies, but you're right about the shadow chrome. :thumbsup:

Get the stance right and you can pull off a wacky colour.
You'll need to drop a fair bit to pull of the 17's. I'm thinking about adjusting mine downward when on the 17s as they get a bit lost in there.
Viper stripes will go well with the white...

I have some Delux gloss almost that colour dave. Hope you don't mind brush strokes ;)

Having already put your car outside your cafe, I think I'm going to need special considerations for a makeover. =))
Choose an image you want and I'll get you an email address if you don't already have mine.

Try Photoshopping the wheels gold Martin, I think gold wheels if the right shade would look good!

Those wheels have never really done it for me but this is what they remind me of, so it think I'd go with this colour scheme

I like the silver best personally with a nice sized flake in it, but shadow chrome comes in close.
Much better than the black wheels you had on and that god awful blue stripe....,

Here you go @Grumpy . The original image and then as close as to Laguna Sec as I can get. Its a quick edit - the edges aren't brilliant.
