Bronze wheels on my Fabia

Trying to go for something different on the car.

It's only a photoshop, but do you think it suits it or not ?

Lots of positive comments on another forum, but thought i'd get some feedback here too.

Any thoughts ?

Re: Bronze wheels on my Fabia

not bad... but feel it works better with red/ white / blue than black/silver/grey

I like it as well, the combination of black and bronze reminds me of something, can't think what though.

Thanks so far guys.

I'm not 100% convinced yet either.
But would just be nice to be slightly different from the rest.

I think they look well smart, a bit different without totally changing the look of the car. How would you go about getting that done?

Re: Bronze wheels on my Fabia

Would get them refurbed, and would have to investigate on getting them sprayed at the time.

As i think they'd need a proper metallic finish to show up well.
