F1's sprayed tomorrow, what colour?



  Edition 30
Bought some F1's off Baines on here.

Off to get them refurbed and sprayed up tomorrow.

My car is naughty blue and I was thinking of what colour to go.

Deffo not going silver, black, or anthracite.

Any ideas peeps, if someone could PS me the wheels onto the car and change car that would be heaven! Pics can be provided...

I liked my black one's;

Would have loved to have some satin black mirror caps to suit aswell.

What sort of answer do you expect without the primary colours though? Green is awful on blue, as is orange, purple you could get away with, blue is abit boring on a blue car IMO. Red suits RB but possibly not Naughty.

I agree with this, i know you said not black but i reckon black will look best tbh.

bronze? not as harsh as orange but more original than black/anth/silver

Don't like to be a sheep though Mike.

I like the White and the Orange best but everyone has white on naughty blue!

Lime green looks good too!

Si get back in this thread!

Could you do one in scooby gold? Like the orange but I wanna see gold before I make up my mind!

p.s. don't do gold. imo that'd only work on darker blue... and even then, it's very 90s. haha.
 
  Edition 30
Right.

Got to sleep on it.

If im going orange its gotta be themed, white is soo tempting!

Cheers mate, much appreciated.

Dropped them off today. Got to wait a week for them to be done but at £100.00 for all four you can't complain.

Also havent confirmed a colour yet!

£100? I'm sure there is a place in Leeds that does them for £15 a wheel?

£40 in fuel from Nottingham to Leeds and back, in a 1.6?

140 odd miles....

Ok.

Place in Leeds I'm sure is the CAS Coatings place in Bradford. I want them to do mine but they don't open weekends so I'm stuck!
Wanted £120 to spray four of my F1s gunmetal.

£1.50 an inch PLUS VAT apparently - even though this doesn't add up I know - must be extra loaded on top for other colours. Sposed to be good though if you can get em down there between 9 to 5 in the week.

Nottingham to bradford as above. Probably £20 in petrol, plus 2 hours twice to pick them up. Not worth it for the time involved imo.

Cas are good though, £1 an inch cash for most colours :).

Just thought I'd bump this thread as they didn't get done on that day, dropped the wheels off today and got till Friday to decide.

Got it down to 3 choices, White, Anthracite or Yellow.

If someone could PS me one of those two pics up top of page then legend status will be granted.
 
  Edition 30
Would love someone to PS me the Anthra on because the 1st page didn't have that as an option...
