Author Topic: Crosstar wheel - change colour (Read 698 times)

Visually the only thing I did not like initially on the Crosstar was the wheel - especially the polished silver bits.

So did a very rough repaint job on the as delivered photo with the silver on one wheel body colour - shining grey and the other black.

I think conversion to shining black all over is going to happen.

Any thoughts?

The black looks better imho.

I have the alloy/plastic trims on my EX which are ok if you give them a quick brush when cleaning, but awful if you want to clean them properly as there are so many small spaces to brush.

Do look nice painted black

Looks nice in black. But I'm not sure I would want to spray the expensive diamond cut finish to all black ,which are normally cheaper - (if available for the car. )

But certainly a good option if ever diamond cut wheels need to be refurbished due to kerbing or 'white worm' corrosion.
In which case body colour would also look good as an alternative.
