I dont like it... Just make them completely black. High Heat 2000 degree paint 3 coats sand in between and hit it with a clear.

Maybe they would look better in person instead of pictures. But in the pictures it looks like a splotchy paint job. I like the overall goal tho.

ha yeah pictures don't give it much justice.... but i think the reason they look like that in the pictures are since they were realllllllllllllly shiny chrome rims and i used a black chrome finish on them they're still really shiny/glossy but dark at the same time.. i just didn't like them when they were bright silver/chrome.

not my style...


and i would go completely black but this shade goes better with my black chrome projectors, turns, and tails!
