Aquill1 is a genius. That is amazing! Thank you. That looks really good. Finally a V other than black with red calipers.

So my next question is, can you photoshop the wheels from this car, onto that same picture?

I don't know about red, but if you paint them to match the car it looks great!

do a search for my thread about painting calipers. I have black powdercoated stock wheels, black calipers, and lowered, on a platinum V...

I just threw this one together for you dannboss...If you want a better one match up the angle of brentmans V to your platinum v and snap a pic for me (similar lighting helps too but I can try and fix this the best I can.) I was unable to get a good result of adding brentmans wheels on the pic of that V I found.

Here's a little drop...

For some reason some of the pics I found of brentmans v were hazy looking, if you look at the front wheel you'll notice it pretty bad.

Hey brentman/luvmy04v,
If you want a different shot lowered send it to me, all of the pics I could find on your car are so dark that it hardly seems like you can even see it.
BTW I think you should keep the stock powdercoated wheels and buy those 20" stockers too. I like chrome but I like the wheels you have now...or perhaps those 20's powdercoated!

I could have went lower but I don't think it'd look right. If you have a better pic you want done link me to it and I will give you all sorts of drops for it....

I really hope to lower my car soon. Your photoshop of my car lowered does look pretty good.

That's doesn't look bad at all. Question is where can I get high temp heat in our color? Might try painting them myself together with the hubs.

Use regular auto paint with a LOT of hardener in it. I have had 2 track days and an autocross with that and there is no discoloration of the paint. This is with HP+ pads too.
