The wait is killing me so much that I am driving Carlos absolutely mental as I keep changing my mind on what colour to go with, haha. :D
Gibbo, im right there with ya. At least you have decided on the wheel. I have been fighting myself between the 6g and 350, then BAM the friggen fs03 pops up. Black or graphite, them BAM brushed level 2 tint

At, least i did finally decide on square setup, I think :lol:

Think i need to decide this the weekend to have summer wheels before summer is over. :headbonk:

Yeah I just want a finish that is as close to chrome as possible and super easy to clean. :)

I love the finish alcoa use on Shelby wheels which I believe are machined and then have their durabright finish which is similar to chrome but easier to clean, maintain and last forever. Unfortunately don't think anyone else offers that finish. :(

So for me its down to machined silver or liquid silver I think that are closest to chrome finish.

What finish are you doing the white, so many kickass options?

I was so tempted to do red with the Ruby, just scared I will get sick of it at some point. Options are limited for Ruby

Do white bro do white.
I think RR would look good. Be different :cheers:

Paul knows what's up! So I want to do the wheel hand brushed, then tinted DARK so in indirect light in looks black, but when sun hits it, you can see the brush through the tint. And yes, with white! I'm thinking white windows all around.
Quick and SUPER crappy Photoshop, but it serves its purpose :D

Did you consider going with a polished wheel and clearcoat?

Yes but Carlos told me polished is not really possible on the MMR FS02 due to the design would result in the polishing effect not being equal all over, so it would not be perfect and would add a substancial amount to the price.

Carlos has told me machined silver with clearcoat is easily done.

So I need to decide between machine silver or liquid silver. I want whichever is closest to chrome in colour and effect ideally.

Am hoping when it gets closer to the time Carlos can get a liquid silver and machined silver wheel next to each other and snap a photo. :)

Gotcha, kinda figured you explored that option and that makes sense. Good luck on your final choice.

Yeah, Carlos has told me they are a little delayed so they won't be taking my order until around end of June, but I should be the first with these wheels and once I get them lots of photoshoots shall be arranged.

I just want to ensure the finish is not like the silver on the PP wheels (nickle lustre) or apex race silver as I really dislike that colour on my Mustang, looks to white and does not have much depth or gloss.

I have Apex EC-7 race silver on my BMW M3 which works well on a blue M3, but on magnetic the silver is just too matt like, would not be to my taste on my magnetic Mustang.

looks like Gibbo is the first FS02 order/ Terminated will be receiving our sample FS02 which he will provide us with plenty of photshots as well.. he is in the states so we can travel the FS02 wheels around while they arive.
