it's kinda funny, but if you look at the gt500 wheels in a certain angle, they kind of look very similar to the vette wheels. just an observation, i got the gt500 wheels haha, maybe get those painted yellow.

OP-Refine your ideas and like pascal said ...you have to go bold to get to the scheme you want......keep thinking and report back here with your ideas and we can yay or nay it all day long!!!!

It your car and your coin and the colors look great together and the yellow rims IMO is a bit over the top but a yellow lip would look great on black rims or vice versa. The superstripe but offset like someone above suggested is a great idea and wont be too overbearing and take over the car like Real Sniper stated.

I think your on to something very unique and different...

I like the accents like the second set. I don't know how well it would go on the foose rims, but the idea is awesome and will be different, which with the number of stangs out there is becoming more important.

May I ask about what brand the second ones are

And yes I believe that would be really nice with the second pair of rims.

Definitely feeling the second set of rims you posted... I think those would look awesome with the yellow stripe. I'm planning on going all jet black with polished lip on mine, to give me that stealth look. Hopefully someone could do a PS on it, I would if I still had my desktop, but using PS with a touchpad is just not effective.

Solid question. I only found them on one site and I emailed them about the rims...

It's kind of vague so I am not really sure. I'll get back to you if I get a response.

Thanks for the input guys, I'm actually starting to think this may be a good idea...

Double dare me?

Haha, now it's a moral imperative.

I think I'm going to stick with my sixxer for a little while instead of going GT...

So, appearance time.

Plans:

- Cervinis C-Series Front End
- Street Scene Side Skirts
- Street Scene Rear GT Valence
- Dual Boomtubes

Now, with that in mind, looking at this scheme...yellow accented rims (second ones or should I get something custom done)? Does anyone like the idea of painting Foose Nitrous' yellow or is that just over the top? Then, the stripe issue. If I go with any yellow on my rims, it has to follow a scheme. I wasn't going to go the stripe route because the parentals are not a fan but I could easily be talked into it...

What does everyone think? Yay or nay? Be honest about it, if you think it will look like ****, tell me, I won't be upset...

Would this scheme look better than the appearance mods listed on an all black mustang?

Thanks for the time and opinions,

HT
