not enough contrast and it looks a bit odd. IMO. would be interesting to find a pic of the said combo.

found this in the fr-s chop thread:

poormans_LFA 03-27-2012 05:23 PM

not bad. it depends upon how light/dark the shade of bronze.

zAnSh1n 03-27-2012 05:39 PM

Hmm this is true, judging by the last chop you did of mine it isn't that bad looking

merlin2111 03-27-2012 10:27 PM

Those look a lot like my bronze xxr's. Heavy and low quality but good looking. Ya I am think bronze/gold will be the best for this color.

dookie11 03-28-2012 04:13 AM

LOL. Stop bringing FRS pix in these BRZ threads! You're making the decision harder for me (us) !! :D

I think the +35 will fit... but I am not into the whole "hella flush" BS. I want that nice fitment that is almost flush, no rubbing, and not sunk-in either.

I have a feeling the +35 will have a flatter face, while the +45 will have more convex shaped spokes.

Still.... :mad0259:

I just need to wait until I have the car and do the measurements based off the stock wheel to really know. :happy0180:

I have PF01 17x7.5 +38. I could take a pic just to see how flat it is (it doesnt curve in much) the x8 +35 and +45 could possibly be visualized from it, but i dont think they'll be all THAT much different.

There isn't much to talk about now... Zaku has been pretty loyal since '09 so expecting him to not check back for a few days is pretty normal..

Shoot, its starting to happen to me now

But yeah, no FRS on the BRZ side

It seems like the DGM photos are all over the map in their tonal shades - some have a bluish tint, some brownish, others are completely neutral; some are almost black, some lighter. Can someone who has seen a DMG outdoors in sun and shade comment on what it really looks like outside? Thanks. (I post pics A, B, C, D here for reference in discussing this.)

Pretty sure B is a chop.

touge-n00b 04-07-2012 03:32 AM

Well I have a couple of friends with DGM STIs and WRXs, and I can tell you that picture B in the previous post is defiantly NOT DGM. To my eyes in natural daylight, DGM has sort of a blueish tinge to it. In shadows and at night, it looks black. Sorry not very detailed I know.

zAnSh1n 04-07-2012 03:07 PM

LoL.

I know this is odd because its NOT a BRZ(GT5 does not have it yet), but what color wheels ?

86design 04-12-2012 05:39 AM

Blue ? or Gold ?
I plan to do it the cheap DIY way with PLASTI DIP spray ...
paint the wheels BLUE .. maybe if I do not like peel it off and
do GOLD ... I plan to do it with STOCK wheels tho... (not sure if thats a
good idea or not )

Any PHOTOSHOP masters out there willing to shop a BRZ's oem wheels from
silver/black to GOLD ? I only got MS paint and I tried.

Here in Louisville, KY one was out at a little car meet. All kind of nice cars were out even tho it was raining.

I wasn't there for it tho. It was posted on one of Louisvilles car forums. If they post more pictures, I'll be sure and add them :)

Oh, I can't wait to see what you do to your car.

Quoted for posterity. Instant classic right there...

I love DGM!

M-17 04-18-2012 06:12 PM

I think the color looks nice, picture wise that is, on the BRZ. However I didn't like the dark grey on the Scion. it wasn't dark enough and flaky or just weird for some odd reason to me so if I see the BRZ in DGM hopefully it will be better cause my decision to go CBS is getting closer to be my final pick.

jkonquer 04-18-2012 09:53 PM

theres almost no difference in black and gray brz, why couldn't it be more like CGM color?!!

Starscream15 04-18-2012 09:58 PM

Brings to mind Outkast: So fresh, so clean.

86design 04-18-2012 10:06 PM

DGM looks so sexy!!! but i really want to see one in person!! i'm kinda getting sick and tired of the WRB!

Here's my attempts at gold wheels. It looks kinda weird to me....

I only did one wheel on Number 2....

I like how you did one full wheel in GOLD in the back,
because I guess if I am going to DIY Plasti Dip spray
then I'll have to do the whole wheel GOLD.

IN a way I know it'll be kinda OFF, but at
the same time I find that plasti dip spray will
enable me to set my vehicle apart from others
a bit easier for less coin.

A bit darker, bronze even, would look better. To me at least. And I kind like that you just did the silver parts and left the black spokes. Not sure Id do something like that but its different and fun, and doesnt look horrible

This video made me think of the idea.

so many colors I can do for less than the price
of a full tank of gas.
