Celica Forums General Discussion Videos, Pictures, and Audio Clips Pics of Black painted Calipers on GTS wheels?

Wondering if anyone has some pics of a stock GTS Rims with black painted calipers.

you want a chop???

lol, sure.

I do not have a good pic of my car with the calipers shown tho.

Any pics of stock Silver GTS Celicas?

Thanks man. So that is what the calipers will look like?

Hmm...I dunno, I already purchased the paint, we will see how that goes.

Thanks!

I can't find any great pictures to work with

I assume it will look exactly like it does now, except the calipers will be shiny and black... Or whatever type of paint you get

...heres a pic of my wheels..its a better pic if you want to chop it for black

numero 2

^^^ nice photochop

Sweetness. I am going for black calipers!

Thanks!!!

damn, that is a nice chop

You guys think I should invest in black lug nuts to match the Black calipers? Or should I invest that in a Ground Wire Kit instead?

um ya...get the lugs nuts that would be cool

heres a chop of the lugs

damn am i bored or what!!!!!!!!!!

alright well here is something that i would do if it were me

i know how fun it is to use that Hue/Saturation...
i use it on everything...

Holy crap, that looks bad ass with the black lug nuts. I dunno if this is too much but can someone chop the body of the car into the stock silver color. I want to see/imagine how it would look on my car (Silver) versus black.

ill try another chop in a little bit

alright im done...here you go

i lowered it too...damn im bored

dude explod nice chops!

tks

THANKS!

So I will put that plan into motion. Already purchased the brake cleaner and the black caliper paint. Just need some black lug nuts.

Anyone know a place to get those black lug nuts? Something that is not expensive but pretty good quality and will fit my stock GTS Rims?

Thanks!

my car doesnt look that bad in silver, eh?

nice chops johnny..i'm still learning

^^thats good it will come slowly

also...just paint the stock lugs nuts with the same paint your using for the calipers

Damn Xplod your getting good at chopping now.

awesome chops, johnny!

wanna do an rsx chop for me?!

maybe...

oksy fine...get on AIM

.

with these rims

type r wing looks SWEET on rsx.

You can paint stock lug nuts with the caliper paint? If so, how do I prevent them from being scratched when I am tightening or loosening?

^^i dont that thats possible...u will have to repaint them every year or so

good luck with painting your calipers!

its a loooooooong process! hehe

lol, is a long process because I hardly have time to do so, hehe.

So if I was to paint my stock lug nuts, how does one screw it back in? Wrap it with some sort of a cloth or something?

um...yea...like a layer on paper towel or something...i dunno

OMFG...wtf the r those rims kristen...im going crazy trying to find a bigger picture

...ahhh

they're centerline storms.

good luck finding many pictures with them...they're very new and centerline wheels aren't that popular.

...

^^not bad bro...there a little tilted but pretty good

sorry johnny

but yea, there are only like 2 pics i've ever seen of those rims...you can't find pics of them on anyone's car yet

yeah, thats the best pic i could find of them...got them off of some neon.

another thing i didnt like about them was that they were 17" and were one-piece forged (the 18 & 19 inch are two-piece forged and look more like the pic traviesa posted).

he also took the pic right up on the wheels (at first the wheel was bigger than the whole car before i resized it..but anyway as you can see he used the flash so the reflection was pretty bright)

not a whole lot of pics out there though, i gotta learn how to distort things a bit and still make them look fairly normal. i don't get that 3d distortion tool at all...they come out horrible looking lol

^^lol, yea...well it's an idea of how it looks...sorta

i dunno, i think they'll look good anyway on a pearl white car, but i just wanted to kinda see first

could you try the ro_ja wheels on a white rsx?

haha yeah, i'll give it a try. those are hard to find pics of too though. gimme a bit.

if johnny wants to try also (he can do a better job of it) the wheels are ro_ja formula 5s

lol, yea

well i'm out babe! goin bring my bro to the dentist...then gettin my tan on!!

again..try and find the 18 & 19 inch sizes because these wheels are just like the centerlines--they're 1-piece forged on the 17" versions and 2-piece forged for the 18 & 19 inch.
