Default (PICs)Need to choose a color to piant the SC (opinions welcome)
Ok my CL brethren...im caught between two color options....need some opinions

1. Keep the current color (frost white) painted by the previous owner (redo it of coarse)..and be orignal/different I think I'm the only one with this color on an SC

2. Paint it back to the orignal DWP...


**Bonus** If I keep it the current color what do you guys think of these wheels 19x9.5/10.5 +22 (hopfully they clear LS400/TT brakes) from VarrsToen Wheels (dropped on PBM coils)

Below are the pics 1. when I got the car, 2. put 16" supra rims on 3. color rims to go with current color

Looks....different, if thats what your going for the frost white and "icy" wheels could work. depends on what your going for, it'd definitly turn heads tho.

I'd say frost white and the blue varrstoen if your looking to stand out. I really like the color of those wheels personally. And the frost white is different but in a good way. Looks almost silver in the pics and thats my preference for car colors.

the best option is to go back to the original color, im sure the inside of your doors and trunk and hood are still DWP.

Also im actually a fan of these blue varrtoeens,,only a few cars with them and they all looked good.
