what you think about painting them red on a black is 200?

would it be TOO much?

has anyone got them?

I did my black sc430 red today, was lazy and never bothered taking the wheels off just painted it with them on.. still need to go over it again tommorow as it got dark a bit quck today.. didnt help cos I got out of bed at 1pm :P

Took it out for a spin and some kids standing at a bus stop shouted out Oi showoff.. lol so yes red does show up alot on black.

Does make the car look nicer from a distance the red kinda compliments it.

If you used hammerite smooth, you may have a problem putting another coat on, you have to do it all at once or wait weeks for it to go off before putting on another coat, (or so it says on the tin)

Nahh I didnt .. was gutted when I did that, even worse did it on my own driveway! How flucking stooopid is that.

I got a can of caliper paint from Halfords their own brand jobbie. Dries in 30 mins then you can apply another coat, Was ok though £8.99 done 8 calipers (and the Range Rover ones are big) and still have half a can left.
