Freddan72 OP Competition Level Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,194 Göteborg, Sweden	Hi everybody! I need some advice. I´m going to paint my 20VT plus rims and thought I should change to a new color. I have decided that it should be either dark grey/grey or matt black. My car is an electric blue, I have some pics here if you want to see it: http://www.garaget.org/?car=15482 What do you think? Please show me some pics with repainted rims (grey or black) so I can make up my mind $\:\)$ Cheers Freddan Last edited by Freddan72; 17/05/2007 02:09.
