ZS Phil has a spectacular aura aboutZS Phil has a spectacular aura about
Red ZS update.

Some of you may remember reading a thread from when I first got the car in December and how I was considering painting the wheels. Despite everybody saying do them white, I decided not to be a sheep and did them gloss black with different badges in the centre. I also completely stripped down all the calipers, ground lips off the disks, painted the edges of the disks gloss black along with the outsides of the pads and did the calipers red. Im happy with the results, what do you guys think? Any comments good or bad are welcome

I'm not a fan of full black wheels on some cars, but that looks good. By the way I used to have black wheels on my Calibra, so have been there before

I think black or white looks good on red. Surprising what a lick of paint can do.
