jim Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have a set of Stich Mesh III's that are currently with the powder-coaters, I had intended putting them on my black supra and had decided on a two tone bronze for the rims - gloss bronze lips and satin bronze faces. I've just agreed a price on a quicksilver supra so the rims will be going onto it instead. Would bronze and quicksilver look right as a combo, or should I be thinking of a different colour for the rims? Any opinions/advice appreciated, and pics would be cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_dragon Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'd go black with a silver car personally. Bronze would look ace against black though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'm thinking cobalt/electric blue centres with a polished lip. But I am not well in the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 This is very true Damien, you are nuts That US one is amazing Kitch but chrome or even polished isn't an option - the wheels have been blasted and primed already. In general that's the look I'm going to go for with this Supra, no kit, and stanced on nice wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that colour, but not enough came up through the auction when I was chasing mine, so 2nd choice white was the answer. Look forward to seeing the end results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 same lol, I love 1A1 anthracite but the chances of finding one are slim, quicksilver is a decent second choice. Still love black more than any other colour on a Supra but I've had my black one 8 years so a change will be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 cherry red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 cherry red That was my first thought but thought red would be better suited to a white car. If a polished lip isn't an option how about black centre with a gold/yellow lip? http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/7526/porscheyellow.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Q Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 i've said it before, i'll say it again. kawasaki green on any colour car. same bonkers as pedro i think..... https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/547567_10151447761659735_1801569990_n.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Been there done that lol, have had green then orange and pink I really do like bright coloured wheels but I'm not sure that I'd go for something 'different' on this one as it's going to stay stock bodied (USDM style), it was different with the current one as it's kitted and suited that look more than a stock one would.

Ah that's just old age talkin' You can't say that wheel colour on the porker is particularly OTT though can you? I was never a massive fan of silver cars tbh, I think a splash of colour might lift it above the usual mundane throngs of silver cars you see everywhere.

Maybe I've got my colours wrong - it's the darker gunmetal colour that was only available for facelifts (same as the one kitch posted above)...is that quicksilver?? The colours aren't too in your face on the porker, just not sure I want to go for a bright colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitch79 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I google "quicksilver supra" and the majority were that grey colour. Its not an actual supra colour tho from what Ive seen... Silver metallic graphite (1B9) is the facelift grey. (Or gunmetal ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Black wheels on a silver car usually suits (I'm biased) but the picture above with the green wheels actually looks pretty good too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quicksilver was introduced in 1997 Was quicksilver not an option at the launch of the supra? I'm sure my colour was quicksilver and was a 95.
