White looks ace. Would look even better if ya had a white roof (which can still be a possibility!).

I think they are OEW, not pure white.

I was all set to paint them RED, when Chris Z said they looked great 'as is'.

Easier to leave them the way they are..... :wink:

The roof stays red, poeee.

I would go red as the rest of the car is red, to leave them white you would have to have some other part of the exterior white, like the roof. Or you could go black and paint the arches black to match. having one accessory a different colour looks a little odd me thinks. I suspect you will go red and then let the chrome do it's job of making the car go bling!

Cheers

Hi Anton

I'm with Aaron on this one go red or get the union jack decals for them. RED definately. Have you worked out seat trim yet?
