Red, white, or...?
So, since I'm a stupid teenager and I'd rather not save my FAFSA money on school...
What color should I plasti dip my stock rims? I own a whiteout FR-S and I'm torn between red or white but open to other colors EXCEPT gold. Opinions and possibly pics please? |

Take it from someone who has a BSEE and currently getting MBA from a top ten ranked university in the nation with over $100k in student loans,...
Don't waste your FAFSA. If you look at the money your borrowing for what it's worth when you're 30, 40, or 50, it's not worth it to spend it on some bullshit for your car.

Black or silver. Crazy colors are reserved for high end wheels on very clean/tastefully done cars. Otherwise you're just flirting with rice. This is all my opinion, of course. White is definitely the most receptive color car for throwing on some crazy colored wheels though.

Anthracite! Pretty close to black but, also has a bit of metallic in it so, looks better IMO.

I have a whiteout FRS as well and have plastidipped my stock rims white. It looks pretty good imo. I had a couple people ask me what kind of rims they were and where I got them. I'm not too sure how the red plastidip looks yet but I am curious. Good luck!

There is a wheel catelog on the forum: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7535
If you ctrl+F search "OEM". You'll see a couple pics of plastidiped OEM rims. I've seen the red before too. Don't do it red... please. |
