'Bout time they get done. Pictures are good, but the location sucks. Looks lice, but I still think yoiu should have went with gold or bronze.

I picked up the paint from the Milpitas Kragen. Thanks for all the positive comments!

Estrada- Yeah, location sucks, too bad that's the only place I ever am during daylight hours....

I think the dark color makes my side molding bareable...no?

Paint your whole car flat black. Make it all match the rims. That would be awesome.

Nice work! I've seen these stock wheels painted white and black, the black looked really nice. I painted some old toyota wheels silver a few years ago...used a coat of primer, two-three coats of gunmetal silver, and 1-2 layers of clearcoat. where they have been curbed the paint has rubbed off, but everything else still looks good. definitely clearcoat them as much as possible and they'll last a while. good luck!!

they look prety good. And the price is right

I am still considering powdercoating my rims. I want the Prodrive P1 anthracite color.
I know it will cost mucho dinero.

Cheers
