Brprs Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 What color should I paint my BBS'? Just let me know! All options considered. Someone who owned these wheels painted them black with spray paint and they look terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brprs Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 May be doing this today! My car is ABP as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brprs Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Need more votes! Didn't get to touch them much, but I did have the tires removed, so it wasn't a complete failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dujo Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 White would be very standout/obvious, but I do have white hellas and a white plastidipped GT badge and I can confirm that white actually goes with ABP pretty well. The dark colors go well with this color as well. I personally don't like super dark colors on wheels because the shape/design of the wheel disappears visually in anything less than full sunlight. I've seen goldies with ABP, which is not my cup of tea, but folks do run 'em, so somebody likes it. Personally, I'm running a matte dark grey powdercoat refinish that I love. I think the color is often described as "anthracite". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoozeRS05 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I was reluctant to believe it, but gold looks great on ABP in my opinion.. Light colors (gold or silver) or semi-dark colors (Gunmetal, not black) are best in my experience with ABP. http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=132775&d=1351732129 http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll64/BoozeRS05/Car%20Pictures/DSC_04921.jpg http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll64/BoozeRS05/Car%20Pictures/DSC_0826.jpg EB's Subaru journal - 2005 LegacyGT Wagon & 2014 Forester FB25 (2008 specB - RIP) IG@legacygtliving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brprs Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 Thanks, I'm probably leaning towards the grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
