Ok, so really I don't have the budget to buy new rims for my gt4.
I have the oem rims on it, I thought I'd follow a guide from the forum and paint them semi-gloss black to fit with the spoiler mount blocks and the set of lips and side skirts I ordered today...what do you guys think?

Ohh by the way, I didn't smash the car because of bad driving skills...November 26th 2010, first freezing rain in Montreal, I was on ice, I was on my way to work, the wind blew and I lost control of the car and hit the side wall with the front, the gained control back and lost it again to hit the wall on the other lane with the back of the car...luckily no other cars were involved and I wasn't hurt, except for a whiplash that I still have right now

edit: yes it was cosmetic...but the frame was twisted and the wide body was flattened but no mechanical was broken except the radiator and grill...finding the parts was the hardest!
