Steve Butters Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 some bikes can pull it off....but im not sure about the orange....might look good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 i dont like them....i think the single accent stripe around the rim like you have looks best....i really like the white/blue/black bikes that color match the blue wheels...but i dont think it looks good in orange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkason Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 When I got color match quoted on PC for my Brandywine paint the price skyrocketed and they made no promise of a perfect match. They are now black with flake that they had in stock.If you want perfection I'd go paint. If you don't mind something that may be a shade off and only noticeable to the trained eye that is bulletproof PC is the way to go. As for accents it can be a pita to tape off and make the lines perfect. I wet sanded my rim lips to a chrome shine and after the PC I have to sand it again to even the line up......but damn it looks sweet. Kind of a crappy shot and the lips need polished again. As for your bike orange on orange might be a bit.....how do you say.....orange. I think a solid black may set it off better with contrast, but this is my opinion and do what you think is right.

dustinsn3485 Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Ignore the haters. I did yellow on yellow with my bike and there's plenty here that say it looks good. You can see pics on my profile page, somehow. I was on a ride last weekend and got comments on my wheels and bike then too.I had a place in piqua pc my wheels...

20thGix Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 I think the Repsol Honda's look good if thats the kinda look your going for without all the graphics. I've thought about going blue on my rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 AFI in piqua did my swingarm and chain gaurd for just $100 bucks and others that said they are great priced on here were like $50 more expensive and they aren't even an established business. AFI for the win buddy. Piqua is close to you as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
