Talking painted slips (pics)
hey guys i painted my wheels yesterday. just want to knoe what everybody thinks of it. the paint its like a dark gun metal color and i polished the lip. the wheels size are 195/50/15. the photo quality kinda sucks because its was taken out of a picture phone and the weather was pretty cloudy soo bare with me. =P enjoy..

Did you paint the rubber thing under the front bumper or did you buy it that way?

I think it looks good, and I dont really like dark rims... feeling the gun metal more and more lately, shoots. Good job man.

i think its a good idea, but you can still see some light spots where its not dark enough. i say go ahead and put another 2-3 coats on it, then hit it with some clear coat in a can and it will shine and look real good.

Its original, but it looks like you curbed it all the way around. Either paint it, or polish the whole lip.

hahah yah it is. just make sure you do it in the light and keep it flat so you wont have any drips

the clear is even going to be trickier since its thinner
