When I bought my car it had the 14" with hubcaps so I bought a set of stock GT wheels off a local and they were OK. They were rashed and dinged up a bit so I finally had the opportunity to paint them. I thought about doing gunmetal but I want it to still look stock so I stuck with the silver - and it was a perfect match - they look brand new. anyway, pics
taped up and paint ( no clearcoat yet ) painted and clearcoated the pics really don't do them justice. They shine next I need to buff them and maybe wet sand them. I should of taken a before pic they used to be peeling and a little darker in some spots ( after I would clean the brake dust off, it looked like it was still there ) -------------------- |

I stuck with silver. It took about 2-3 hours for paint. The toughest part was getting them off the car (and putting the old 14s back on) and lugging them up to the 3rd floor
once the clear is comletely hard (hopefully tomorrow - I have a fan on them overnight) I will putt hem back on and snap some pics -------------------- |
