My Alloys Get A New Look

[Delix]

Hello Guys.

I've decided to give a lexi fresh look with the alloys

Feerygreey custom made colour from cardip

What you think guys?

[Lexmanic]

Like it. Sets the car of beautifully. Now the burning question where & how much??

[Delix]

You can order sprays from

And my good mechanic done everything for £140 ( including sprays )

I am just not a lover of black wheels, Silver seems to highlight the car much better. I'm old, cant help it. Mike.

Haha !! Me too. I can't help my age either :)

If you leave the alloys without washing them the brake dust will turn them that colour for no cost.

Im with Mike on this one. I don't like black wheels, for me and this is only my opinion it makes the car look cheap and tacky. But we all will know the car isn't cheap and tackey, but the wheels make it look that way. Sorry.

Wheels look great in my opinion with a dark coloured car but red calipers are normally reserved for Ferraris :)

[oldhazey]

Everyone to there own,but was brought up on deep dish chrome or polished alloy,so has stuck

Black wheels are grubby wheels ;) ;)

With all respect I think it dates the car for some reason and looks slightly tacky, but like has been said before perhaps it's an age thing,

I think your car would look stunning with the original alloys.

At the end of the day it's not about what anyone else thinks it's about what you like. And it's all about personal choice!!

Its an amazing car regardless. Enjoy!!

I've still got a set of Citroen DS23 (Stainless!) wheelcovers in my loft!

I say 'wheelcovers, because they are more than 'caps'!

Lol,not a fan of black wheels either although they do go well with some colours more than others(the in thing at the moment seems to be black wheels irregardless of colour of car) yuck lol

[harrylime]

Again , may be an age thing but black wheels don't do much for me. I prefer silver wheels but much more grey than silver, I think gunmetal grey wheels would do more for that lovely car

I'm trying to forget my age, and when I can't I just ignore it.

I am planning on living forever, and so far, so good ! :)

hi guys. yes I have to agree with you. most ls owners are 40+ years old when choosing this car.

but I've got so far 31 that's why I've decide to give him more aggressive look.

and this fairy grey colour( not black ) works for me.

............. ​ the vagaries of youth eh !

referring to an Ls as " him " rather than the usual for us oldies of " she "
