I've had the paint for a while, I've sprayed my wheels 2 different colors before and just never got around to getting the purple on there. Glad I finally did, hoping old people shake their little angry fists at me shouting "damn kids"... I think it's really not in line with things I usually do, and that's why it's so great.

This will probably get me through summer and then, hopefully, finally, I'll get some aftermarket wheels.

Is this too ridiculous?

When you pick up Prince to go hand out copies of The Watchtower, he will love it. Sorry, I had to mention Prince. No, it looks good and you have the right idea about changing the color once in a while. I like it.

Though I would have gone for black, no, that's not ridiculous. This is:

They were black for a short time before, and also a horrible golden copper before that

Lol, how long did you have this paint on for?

Think the copper was on for about a month. The black was on for 3 or 4 months, then I got new tires and they messed up the paint so I took off the black and went stock for a couple months. This stuff is an addiction, I'm already thinking of what color to do next. I think teal. maybe mint.... something ridiculous :) lol. The black is a much better color for the long term, and easier to keep clean.

It is just the right amount of ridiculous. I really dig the purple

I don't like painted wheels, but those look good. Now you need to fix the headlights.

It would look lazy and cheap IMO if you have only painted the wheels, and have no other mods to really back it up. I'm not a big fan of silver cars.

I like the low though and with some other wheels and mods this could look awesome. I like the colour.

Less ridiculous than me thinking of metal flake blue on my taurus rims.

Dopeness. I had purple wheels once, bought them used with good tires for cheap. Rocked it out for a while before I painted them white, because why not?

Real paint or just plastidip?

Looks good. You should paint the badge on the front to match the wheels. Tie it together.

Yes.

But if you're sticking with it, paint the mirror caps to match.

What do you think should be done? I haven't really seen anything that can be done to these cars that doesn't look awful. Even something as simple as a front lip... I've got these amazing coilovers and I'm pretty happy with how it looks, there's nothing I've really been yearning for on the outside. Under the hood maybe, I'm looking at a Magnaflow exhaust and Y-pipe.
