I am Thinking about painting the trim on My ,05 SSB Ltd. Coupe, Black and getting a set of Black Madrus Mellinums to match. I did a photo shop of what it would look like but could not get the wheels to work right on it. If any one is beeter at photo shop and wants to give it a try feel free... anyways what dou you guys think

Thanks
Chris

 

i don't think it really adds to the look. i'm just not feeling that.

 

Yeah i can see what you are saying i think mostly it is the paint program i used and the crapy job i did at the editing... Microsoft paint just does not cut it but it is all i have lol. I can picture it in my head but cant put on paper kind of deal.

 

Sorry bud, It think it will make it look like a base coupe.

 

SSB is my favorite color, and I don't think black would do anything for it.

 

Ok thank you guys for your input i think i agree the paint is a bad idea but what about the black wheels to match with the tint.

 

My in-the-near-future plan is Stern ST1 or ST7 Hyperblack.

But, whatever blows ones skirt up! Go for it, my friend.

 

Maybe go with the wheels but don't do the black paint. I would go with a silver wheel.

 

I plan on getting those Madrus in silver for my SSB SRT-6. Great looking wheel.

 

I'm not a big fan of black wheels, but that's a personal taste. To each their own. If you like it go for it.

 

Yeah I like black but I am worried it will look weird. When i was looking to buy and xfire i wanted a Graphite one but could not find one for the price and miliage i wanted. So i went with the SSB which has grown on me, I am just looking for some ways to make it a little darker.

Thanks

I love the SSB, and I agree black does not do much for it, except window tint. SSB looks great with window tint, and tail light tint.

 

How much is it to do tail light tint?

 

Don't know, but it's not expensive at all. There are some kits on e-bay if you're interested in DIY. Check with Acrispy1. I think he had his done.

 

Ok thanks for the info

 

Not digging the black, but hyper silver Mandrus wheels would look good.

 

lol does the license plate say LAME or lane lol Trust me on this one I had that color first THE only thing that goes with it and looks good is chrome. I think there are pics in my gallery hope that helps.

 

Best I could do to get those wheels on in Photoshop.

 

I've long thought that darker rims would work well, personally i think dark grey would look the best but black looks ok too, better than the silver. I wouldnt paint the trim black, I'd just paint the surround and the handles body color and paint the side strakes and the grill. You may look into the tint on the lamps too.

 

Everytime I see black rims, I think, "serious brake dust".
