hey guys I am contemplating changing the color of the faces of my Volks. If any of you have the time and the skills could you please change the red on wheels to something else? Pick a color

Are you thinking of painting all the spokes or leaving the face exposed? I would do the entire spoke

Thanks Bullitt! I love the gold but I am not sure they could match the Volk gold and then I would be disappointed if they screwed it up. Black is good too, but now I am thinking of just getting the red redone in Velocity Red to match exactly.

From a bit if distance the red looks close to the Velocity red but up close it is actually a matte red and doesn't really match at all.

I had my rims done in a gold, yeah i was worried but i get so many comments on them. It stands out in the crowd. It isn't Volks gold either not as bright.

Its just making the change is what's hard.

Either way going to VR red will still look amazing. How long have you had them like that?

The red on them now was done by Volk. The previous owner of the rims (8 Maniac) ordered them and waited for months to get them. He sold his Black 8 and bought an Audi S4.
