BBS Caps

[coullstar 0]

I am looking at getting some proper BBS badges for my wheels and the choice is between chrome with light silver lettering, black with silver lettering or black with gold lettering.

What are peoples opinions?

 

I am going toward the chrome purely as I have never seen them on BBS's in the flesh and they are slightly different from OE look. However there might be too much silver. Any ideas are welcome.

my choice would be between the black with silver lettering or the silver with chrome lettering.............gold IMHO wouln't look right on a silver motor if you know what i mean :wink:

IMHO, Black with gold actually looks rather classy and may well break up the expanse of silver... 8)

 

It's not a large enough amount of gold to make it "BLING!" worthy, but it's enough of a change to catch your eye and make you think "mmmm, BBS wheels..." ;)

Where can you get replacement BBS caps from?

ebaymotors.de

 

They have all the combinations mentioned above for about £23. I am currently waiting on postage costs.

Yeah.. I think you need the black to help break up the silver a bit as it can look a bit too OTT.

 

I used to have silver coloured caps on my BBS wheels before I was able to source some BBS ones as a replacement, and I think they looked infinately better after fitting the black/gold caps.

Well after nobody going for the chrome ones I bought the.........chrome ones. :mrgreen: Ive just got a gut feeling they will look ok as soon as I lower it.

Seem to remember a silver german turbo VR a few years ago in The Golf with BBS's and chrome caps plus all red rear lights and it looked perfect.
