makes it look like a bobcat wheel, very industrial

 

Unlimited Industries use orange. Usually just the beadlock ring.

In your case I think it clashes with the blue.
Get them powdercoated black.

 

Well I'm a very loud person and I don't want to go down the same road as everyone else with the typical black powder coat, granted I've wanted that over white, but orange for me personally looks good with the blue.

I might waste $100 on spray paint to see what combo's I can get. I do like the orange dish with a thin black trim on the out side. I'll do that this weekend and post how it goes. Or I might paint the right side black and the left side orange to see which is more appealing to the eye.

 

Did you spray the spare ON the car??? I'm just wondering how much orange over spray is on your back door now???

 

Looks good - but does it clash with all the gaffa tape?!?!

 

I hope you at least took it off the car when you sprayed it. lol

Done properly and matched with other bits and pieces it could look pretty good. If/when you do it, get them powder coated. They'll last a lot longer.

 

haha yes I did spray it on whilst on the car,
No paint is on the barn door (even behind the wheel) it's water based marking paint so it just washes off.

I'll get orange gaffa tape to match the wheels

I'm going to do it properly when I make a decision...

 

Deccers, I reckon it clashes. But in a good way mate. I think it looks awesome. Go for it man!

 

I like it too. If I get the time and the motivation I'd do my bullbar , wheels and wheel carrier like that or that type of eyeball scorching blue / yellow / green. It's the new black.

 

Just doit mate, watcha got to lose, a bit of pride, I've done my bar and rims now just got to make sliders and rear bar, some people like it some don't, I think I've only had two bad comments, I over heard the guys at perth 4x4 say ****e that's but it looks ok. Like I said what have ya got to lose.

 

Thanks guys. I wasn't really asking if I should or not lol. Just asking for everyone's' opinion.

I'm going ahead with it and I'll post results on the weekend.

 

At least it's not like getting a tattoo while your drunk and then realising what a stupid thing you did and can't undo it.

When you get tired of orange, try pink. Yom may come and help you choose the correct shade.

Cheers

Make sure you put the pics up Deccers. I'd love to go Lime green or yellow or something with mine once i've finished the tube bars, at least mines only a beat up old GQ . Just beware if you use paint, it doen't last very long. The black i painted my play rims in is chipping off after barely 5 or 6 outings, and i actually prepped them properly.

 

Ray: haha like my RM WILLIAMS tattoo...... LOL

Andy: yeah who knows I may want to change colours after 5 or 6 outtings . I'll go through the bloody colours of the rainbow by the end hehe.

'Red and Yellow and Pink and Green, Orange and Purple and Blue...'

 

I'd paint the truck as well and put a bobcat scooper as a bullbar and you're set ;-) just grind off the sharp edges to keep it legal LOL

 

Hundreds and Thousands or Jelly Beans, take your pick?

 

How about with some orange pinstriping on the car?

 

I like it Deccers and I like Mike's suggestion of orange pinstriping too.

A few examples of orange with blue paint:

 

I like the last one best...

 

But that last one didnt have wheels, I like her flames though.


Anyway I reakon go for it Deccers91.

I had a mate with a jacked up Pajero and he painted the wheels bright yellow. It actually looked quite good.

At least you will stand out.

 

But that last one didnt have wheels, I like her flames though.

Are you sure?????? I'd check before going too far.

 

The last one is Pink, lol.

I like the orange wheels, but then again I'm from the Jap scene where colored wheels are the new in thing!

 

i painted a troopy at work that had bright yellow sunnies, i dunno if he did it cos the wheels were "sunnies" or he just wanted to be diffrent.
Also my old man got 6 steel wheels for his Prado that he was gonna put some more aggresive tyres on for play, he then was gonna spray them all bright and obnoxious colours just to annoy the stuck up prado people cruising the streets.

 

The more you make your car stand out, the more chance you will be noticed by the fun police and the more chance you will be defected for something or other that they WILL find on your car. Stick to black, white or silver if you value having your car on the road.

 

Not enough orange peel.

 

haha... I knew after my comment on your wheels you wouldn't be able to help yourself... That's a bloody bright orange!!
