Color on Oz futura lips

[KristianNielsen]

Don't paint the lips please.

If i ask on a danish forum thats 99% of the awnsers...i am getting some new stuff to polish them with from germany next week because im going to a car show in 3 weeks and need them to be 100% for it....if it works very good i could reconsider!

What Mike and EThirtySicks said, don't go and ruin them. Chrome is easy to take care of. My friend's Mitos have chrome lips and people always ask him how he keeps them so perfect.

[KristianNielsen]

Chrome lips arent hard to keep clean no...but this is polished aluminium

as said earlier chroming them will cost about half the price of the wheels because i gotta ship them off the a diffrent country because its illegal where i come from =/

Clearcoating a polished lip can look very glossy, close to as glossy as a polished lip on it's own, just get quality clear and a good painter.

Painted lips look like the car was meant to be in the MkIV forums on the tex... polished only please

do you remember the black bmw 540 with the same wheels from bilgalleri.dk? he painted the lips black so it matched the rest of the wheels and car..

do like him maybe?

[KristianNielsen]

Never seen clearcoated polished lips have a great shine compared to just polished..

Yea i remember that bmw...but his bmw was also black so it looked perfekt...no idea if completely black will fit my car

[mahadeva81]

how bout gold lips?

you would be the first in Denmark.. haha

[hypercrush]

i just did a test of black with cream on one of my extra wheels. maybe seeing it would help with your decision i dunno


(no clear on, so matte black and cream here)


LOVE your OZs btw

You have three options:

1.) Quit being a fairy and polish them often.

2.) Chrome them for a decent amount of money.

3.) Spend money to make the wheels looks worse.

If you can't spend a little time once a week to make your wheels look good, you should probably get into something other than cars.
Don't molest those lips, plz.

Got a contact with a danish guy that can chrome them for a fair price so they will be chromed this winter.....then its just a question...chrome it all or keep center flat black or paint carīs color :p

Thanks for the ideas and awnsers =)
