No reason, it's just a quesion that gets asked alot around here.

i have some stock scion TC rims that are painted metallic "Pavo Purple" from House of Kolour (when my airbrush gun worked) they're cleared and all, if you're interested i can get you some pictures, my camera's batteries are dead at the moment.

It looks a lot like this:




Which was made with this:

Or you can make the lip using an old gift card, and use paperclips to make the braces.

Was it hard?

lol, greattttt :/

All you need is a patient hand and an exacto blade. Just trace the front bumper line with the exacto repetitively with medium amounts of pressure and it will come right off. Then glue it to your bumper.

If you want to go with the gift card, trace the original bumper onto the card to make a reference, then draw the additional lip, and cut off the extras. Glue it to the front.

Hmm, I understand, but i'm trying to picture it now. If you have the time i'd like a lil more help with it. If not, thats fine. :]

But great idea!

What i've told people is that the paint is more in my budget, anddd it's a 'right around the corner' thing.
I'll definitely work on the chassy later though!

Probably could toss a candy pink onto those, and get the proper color. And some nice depth in the sun light.

But these rims are pretty identical to the real car: http://www.xmodsinternational.com/US...ZONEZ1RIMS.htm

those rims do look a lot like the ones on the 1:1 car...and the kandy would show up well on them b/c they're already chrome...im actually going to see if iceman has some kandy pink and play with those rims, if they come out like they should that'd be pretty sweet....(i got like a dozen sets of those rims)

That is also minus the rims though. You honestly planned to paint them for me? lol

Actually Tex, I think these rims are a bit closer to what the actual rims are: http://www.xmodsinternational.com/US..._TENZORIMS.htm
I really want to see the finished product. Keepin' my eye on this one! Good luck!

i'm going to >>attempt<< to paint them lol...real kandy is a ***** to lay on because it's trasparent and require a bunch of coats to match the color you're looking for, i'm not even sure if it'd be a great idea to spray onto the chrome finish, i probably need to mask off the outsides of the rims that are going to remain chrome, prime the center, spray it metallic silver then start spraying on the kandy. don't rush your project though...take your time, do it right and make it kick ***...god i wish bondo were here to answer my paint questions...

Bondo's moving?

wow... this thread is pretty off topic...

[firebird999]

yes, and now it's being set back straight...

well, now with those purple rims being posted, i've lost my appetite for green... it seemed so cool, but now... so anyways, those 20 spokers would be perfect in pink/purple! but i would like to suggest the rims being black with a pink/purple lip, rather than all pink/purple. that would go better with the grey imo.
