    bronze is sexy on red but if you wanna stand out from the rest i would go with red lip and black, bronze, or chrome inside.

    thats just me. Admin(pual did it to his car ish HAWT!)

    im sure you could google it and find ways to paint them, but without having them proffesionally powder coated, your taking higher risks of chipping and flaking. you can always ask HiPSI how he did his, they turned out pretty damn good looking.

    black with red lip looks decent too:

    only problem is that i've seen it before on a few other cars so it may be a little over played

    a paint scheme to match one of the other wheel pics. bling bling mutha fucka

    black with red is definately over played plus you can buy them like that...but i have never seen bronze with red....but i'd take it to sprayglo or someone and let them colormatch it to your car instead of just a cherry red

    Red with polished lip, or polished with a polished lip. Black and bronze are way too played out. (No offence, Chucky. Yours looks hawt.)
