Well i figured for the time being i would just pait my factory rims red instead of using hub caps. Also as a temporary fix till i get new rims (which i'm looking at getting the factory 16" rims off of a 97 eclipse turbo)

anywho here's some pics

Sorry but dont do these cheap mods with the g's. :smt078
It'd be much better if you just painted them black.

hmm, i don't remember saying mod or cheep mod for that matter, i do however remember say, that it was a temporary till i get the rims which i should be getting this weekend, (well actually i said temporary fix)

but anyway i can see that i will stop posting pics and just post in certain sections

peace out

If you cant take positve and negative comments dont post pictures :P

Everyone has their own taste in everything, everybodys taste is different ;)

You should just get some red Rota GT3s.

red? do you have any contemplation of the color spectrum obviously it would look horrible just get a nice set of wheels with tires, the 16's wont look bad but please paint them black again at least for your own morals

Not feelin it. Better painting the hubcaps black to be honest.

Also, its sad that you would take that "I'm not going to post here" attitude when you post pics. Of course your going to get opinions, its a forum. Anyway good luck w/ the ride and maybe you will listen to our suggestions or not. Its your ride, your look!

No offense bro but either you add other red stuff or the red is out of place. There is no problem with wanting your car stock but the red does the car no justice.

good luck.

Seen your other thread about leaving, just wanted to say. Its a car forum people will say negative and positive things. Unfortunately in your case it was negative. You can either say screw them its your car and $$$ who cares what people think. Or you can take the advice they give and change stuff around. I'm sure what we think is nice others might not, so don't let it get you down and quit my friend

I am sorry shane, I have to go with the rest of the guys and girls here. It is good you are getting new rims. The stock rims that you painted are not a desirable rim in the first place. You only made them more visible. The focus is taken from the clean lines of the G into the circles on the steel rims. You're best friend may tell you it's alright, but when you are not around he will tell everyone differently. Not trying to be mean--just leveling with ya.

I think he left TGC, because of our comments.

That's his own loss....

It's also a shame too- every time I post up pics of my car I expect replies that are reasonable and within the typical opinions around the board. If you like what I've done, cool, if you don't well maybe it needs some work or it was just a bad idea to begin with. Yes, everyone is bound to attempt or add something less appealing to their car- but that's why you post, to know if what you did looks/works well.

Problem with this guy was that every time he posted up a mod, very few, if any members liked it. I guess it's hard to be a part of TGC if people repeatedly talk down on your G and/or mods- but honestly, if time after time you get negative feedback, wouldn't you follow a new route or try something that everyone else has done? Modding is expensive depending on what your plans are, so it is ok to work with what you have. It all comes down to planning and patience....the creativity part is awesome too but sometimes it just doesn't flow.

I rode around for a year on my black steelies. My opinion; you should have left them black and kept 'em clean but it is your car. 8)

but this was the 2nd time he had wheel issues.. the first was those rims that stuck out.. and now this.. he's got wheel issues.. but heck back when i first started out here, i was blasted too.. but heck it's for your own good.. if anything i coulda been running a fan in front of my intake UHmm (krispy) and people might say that's cool just for another extra post.. but not the TGC cause we want what's best for all!!! hehehehe whatever!!! but really newbees can be really sensitive to flaming.. to senior forum members, chill on nubees, for nubees, this is not your birthday party. it's a forum.

What's up with his sig? It says, "Keep It Stock OR Go Home." If he followed his own slogan, he would have kept the hub caps on.

its wrong if somone comments " u must be bored" or "wtf that looks really gay man stop modding" thats my opinion. i think some people are too harsh. just simply say looks bad or looks good, leave red or paint them black instead. YEA IT WAS UGLY but im not going to say ahh throw ur car off a cliff now. i had the same problem over at 3gfl forums, they cracked on me for having the bodykit unpainted and i went off on a couple of people lol but w.e.

it feels better to have a new person come in here and we help him make his shit look NICE rather then having him leave with the same nasty crap done to it and loose another new G and let that G ride around making all the other G's look bad lol
