Need opinions on this color combo

Ok so I posted these pictures in two other threads but got no responses. I was hesitant to start a new one because ... well, they're pink. I just learned how to photoshop yesterday so I know it's a bang up job but it gets the point across. I will have coilovers on the car soon and I also have a candy blue BBK that you can't see. I would go with a similar wheel and the same or a very similar color. I am hesitant for obvious reasons so I am seeking opinions. I already have a nice set of matte black TE37s on the car, but I'm looking for some color in my life. Please be nice.

WOW....that's a lotta PINK! That's not my thing but if you go this route no one will doubt the pilot is a female. Not sure if it's the color but those rims look way to big, like 22's....

They look ok color wise. I'd rather see a nice deep gold color.

Lol I thought the same thing. It's cause of the crappy photoshop job I did. I couldn't get anyone to do it for me. They would obviously be more tucked.

I'm not a fan of that. Maybe it's the shade of pink? Just doesn't contrast well IMO. I'm not against the idea though.

I agree with the gold. The contrast of pink and blue doesn't really go together IMO.

I feel you on the wanting color though, I was going to get silver wheels on my DG... no color. So i went with gold

I probably won't get another set unless I can find a color that isn't popular, but actually goes. The opinions help a lot though, because it looks like I'll be saving myself about 2 grand now, which is always a plus. haha

With blue... hmmmmmm. What about White? It's not the most uncommon color... but its still pretty uncommon lol.

Sorry, but pink looks horrible on any car. You have a beautiful, classy car already!

[QUOTE=GeeGirl82;6407003]Ok so I posted these pictures in two other threads but got no responses.

pink isnt that bad i think its just the shade, to bright! if you tone it down a bit like the pic i think it will work

FYI if you need a fast response post pic of you with the car

^ I didn't think the photoshop was that bad either. That's coming from a guy who can't photoshop, but I thought I was going to need some shades looking at those wheels. They were bright!
