I have a 04 ip coupe and I'm getting a oem style CF hood,gloss black roof overlay and a CF trunk.ill still be rocking the oem 18in wheels for the time being and I'm thinking of painting them bronze useing the plasti dip method.
Will the bronze wheels look good with the whole black and white theme or should I just paint them black?

 

First: why are you doing the roof gloss black and not CF?
Second: I didn't think Plasti-dip came in bronze
Third: Depends on how you make it all work together. Personally, I think the wheels would look better black

 

I was going to plasti dip the wheels first then spray them bronze just in case If I didn't like how tge bronze came out I can simply peel it off.
I totally forgot about the cf wrap.i might do that

 

Eh, I'd save your money and just do a paint job (whole car). Bronze wheels would be a bit too brown for that color scheme. You'd want more of a gold imo.

 

You're doing it wrong! C/F hood and trunk, why paint the roof black s/b C/F too. You need to do a whole lot of research before you jump into mods. And plastic dip peels off, why would you put that on your wheels? With the b/w direction you're doing the wheels s/b powder coated semi gloss black!

I think you should plasti-dip and then paint the rims black.. it would look siick.. plus plasti-dip is the cheapest way to get your rims looking nice. Im going to do mine next week

 

Plasti dip the wheels? Wouldn't the heat from the brakes make that stuff peel off? I have used the sprayable plasti dip for old automotive trim pieces, it does not seem durable enough for rims to me.

 

That's a extremely dumb idea...^...plasti-dip will peel off, how long do you think it would last on wheels? Often "Cheapest" isn't the way to go when doing anything cause there's always a reason why!

I have an IP coupe, gloss black grill and gloss black rear diffuser....painted the oem rays gloss black and I think it looks awesome. If you go with CF, I'd do gloss black wheels instead of bronze. Not sure how this would look...but maybe a black wheel with bronze/gold barrel in order to tie everything together if you're dead set on the hood and trunk? Otherwise, I'd just do solid bronze/gold rims and leave everything else white.....I think that looks great.

 

+1 for carbon roof with carbon trunk, but i also have an IP with matte black and white theme, feel free to check my build thread. (link in sig)
