White is a hard color to work with, there's just not that much variance there to change and if you can get it close to the color you want it looks flat.

I put HP wheels on JLSC4's lexus and here's what it got me. It all has to do with the quality of the original image and the color of the car in the beginning. As you can see its sometimes easier to put someone else's mods on a different person's car instead of trying to photoshop the original car.

Now.... how do you like the color?

Why would you paint a car a color that it originally came with? If you're gonna spend between 3.5g and 5g then you'd wanna get a color that did not come as a factory choice with the car
