I am not sure the bronze color you found in Photoshop does the bronze colored FN wheels justice. If you search through the various threads and such, you should be able to find a couple of images with some 4runners having bronze FN wheels which actually look quite striking. I still think it is a tossup between the two colors and it definitely is more of a personal preference thing, but I wouldn't base your decision on your Photoshop images, as that looks closer to some sort of a golden-green than bronze. I also think the black adds a more aggressive look whereas the bronze provides a more refined look.

Just for instance:

Whoops, obviously I didn't read your post closely enough. Definitely go with the black plastidip, as that BurntBronze'ish looks horrid ... IMHO. : )

I would say bronze, but not like the bronze you photoshopped. Black is so over played these days, especially without a chrome lip. I'll get hate for this - but I'm just so sick of every aftermarket wheel being black. Black wheels blend with the tire and take away form the overall look of the wheel. White and bronze can be a great combination if done correctly.

The color you did is more a yellow / gold then bronze. What other colors can you find in plastidip that more resemble bronze?

 

[cmb5286]

I agree. I like the bronze but not as yellow as your PS. A little less yellow and a little more gold.

 

[SSDuck8]

I think the bronze would look great, but as others have said, your PS is throwing it off. However, the idea here is to use plastidip and I feel as if it wouldn't give the color as the white taco pictured above. With that being said, I would go with black if that's ALL you are going to do. If you decide to purchase new wheels, then I would suggest the bronze. Just my .02

 

[mybabydaddy]

^^^^Agreed. PD - Black. When you buy, I'd consider Bronze. EVERYONE does black (and for good reason... It looks mean as hell). But done right, bronze on white (or even black) can look really good. I didn't choose it because I have a Trail; so I had silver valences and chrome pieces to contend with. Even tho my gunmetal wheels don't "flow" 100% perfectly, I still love the look. Next time around, I will prob go back to Grey T4R, and then all black trim and wheels. I love the look of all grey & black. (Hence my custom Cerakote-handle Nimravus!)

Here's what the bronze FN f(x)pros look like...

It's definitely tends to be a darker bronze tone:

It's your ride and it's also can be removed and redone if you hate it. Everyone does black and it does look great but I think the other choice would be cool
