Extra cash for the unemployed Iclubbers! Paint my wheels!
I have zero free time, and I want to make it to the first round of Slush next week. I have 10 days to get my stock BBS' painted before mounting the tires.

I'll pay $100 plus materials for you to sand, prime and paint my wheels gloss black with a blue lips.

Here's a step by step, I don't need the wheel repair part (just some minor sanding of the curbage, they're track rims so they don't have to be 100% perfect, but I want the paint to look decent).

We only do paint cuz powdercoating messes with the properties of the metal but a lot of people get away with it. The paint we use is legit automotive paint. My wheels have been painted for like ten thousand miles and I have hardly any chips. Pm me for more details
