7.50 an hour, how the hell did you afford the Cayman in the first place?? :shock: :shock:

Black, paint them black. Black's on white is the new...well, black on black.

im not a fan of black rims on white cars, it doesnt look right.



AH I see, that's very respectable. I myself love black rims on white and black cars (and white and black alone), however if you do not, then I am of no help, sorry! :? Good luck however.

Sean,

I've done quite a few of these in black back area and silver spokes, they look better IMO. Just an option which keeps the cost lower than swapping out....

there is a guy that goes to cars and coffee who has them painted black on a black car but he doesnt seem like the person who would let me "try them on"

+ i really love white rims on white cars


Just picture the black instead of white. . . on those wheels and you'll get the picture.....

i think you should paint them, its really simple to do.

i dont have access to photoshop couseim at school, but when i get home later on tonight ill do them in white as well....


Just looking at your avatar, maybe Sean would like to go in a different direction with striping..... Maybe all black with a white stripe like yours...

Just a thought,

NOW THERES AN IDEA! just when i narrowed it down to two options.... :?


Yah, I think that would look totally "BAD" since you don't see too many Cayman owners doing things with their wheels like this..... Do it man..

I think the contrast would be more like this, since those photos deplict more of a Gun Metal and Gray....
