thank you sir! im actually browsing white g35 with black rims and im loving it!


however, i dont like these 20s they look SMALL and i have no idea why, good thing with the dip is i can remove it wasily if i want to sell them

i guess its cause i had on 22s these seem small, im going to go back to stagered 20s soon as i can...

but with the flat black i wouldnt need glosifier right? even better, one can per wheel

22's?? Good god that would look terrible. You shouldn't go above 19" unless you are into the full stanced look, and even then 19's can do the job perfectly fine.

Yeah I'm not quite a fan wither, they look too small, they'll have to do until I get better ones

I don't know if I could get the transition from the lip to the spokes perfect though so I'm figuring one colour

Or I could dip everything and cut the dip and strip, buy that might damage the rim...

Definitely do them bright purple seriously though I think bronze looks nice with IP, although I don't know how well it would work with that wheel design. And 20's look small to you

These 20s look small to me. I guess it's the design


What does IP mean?

If you are serious and not trying to troll, I think black would look best. 22's are "Donk" or "Ghetto" 'round these parts of the interwebs.

Yeah I know kinda why I got rid of them and I'm not a troll, I'm in Jamaica so I'm kinda ghetto even though I don't look it... Lol

I'm just worried if bi dip the rims in black I'll want white and vice versa. And plasti dip is expensive down here, at about 15us per can when you convert it


So I'll end up b spending close to 100us...

If that is the case, you should try and photoshop the different colors onto a pic of your car. Also IP is the color "Ivory Pearl"

Size:  287.7 KB my paint job as its a pearl white, didn't even think about that. Full white might not match

I have some other 20s I might mesa around with if I can't sell soon... These

Sorry my note 2 is messing, pic at top, ivory pearl might be close to my paint job as its a pearl white

What type of paint are you using?? If you are rattle canning it, don't bother just leave it as it is. It is extremely hard and rare to use rattle can and have a decent looking paint job.
