Does anyone have a yellow X with gold center wheels? I've considered the gunmetal and am wondering how gold would look. I don't think a solid gold would look very good but with a high polish lip it could look pretty nasty...

Anyone?
 
I know ive seen it somewhere and it lokks very, very HOT! :biggrin:

Did you ever think of custom ordering a set with factory Honda yellow spokes with a pol lip? I just did a set for an NSX (won't say what brand, or what color.....saving the owner the chance to show off once installed)

IMO gold on yellow would not be the best contrast.

I agree, consider custom center color to match factory paint code.
This would be the best choice IMO.
Hmmm, I wonder who Tom is talking about ordering custom color wheels...? :wink:

Have u concidered white wheels? i'v seen one and it looks hot too.
IMO: i love my OEM wheels no plans on chging them.
 
Here's a Spa S2000 with gold wheels with a polished lip. I know it isn't an NSX but at least it gives you an idea.

*edit: The pics aren't working right now for some reason. Stupid S2KI :mad:

I'll try to fix them in a bit.

**edit #2: Pics are below... thanks Ojas!!

That S2k is on the money. I think gold center would be too much and too bright. The slight gold contrast looks unique without blinding people as if the car was dipped in yellow.
 
Evoking,

I've saved pictures of your current NSX with CCW wheels on my HDD. I like to admire them from time to time. I'm wondering if you can take some time to snap some high resoultion pictures of it as I would greatly appreciate it. It's a beautiful setup, indeed.

Re: Spa Yellow with Gold Wheels (Photoshop?)

So I'm still debating moving to a different wheel with a painted center. I've done the dark gray which always looks clean. I'm really considering the gold center. And instead of buying a new wheel, I'm thiking my current wheels with the centers powder coated gold would be sweet.

Kinda similar to the yellow S2000. Look at my wheels and tell me how you think they would look with gold center. Can someone good at photoshop help?

These are the only angles that I have of the gold wheels on the yellow, hope it helps.

Yes, this helps give me an idea. Although I'm thinking gold center with polished lip your solid gold even looks good.

Now can someone photoshop my wheels?
