I painted one wheel over the weekend to see what it would look like. What do you guys think? Personally I like it, the camera phone doesn't do it much justice though. :sorry:
Looks good pretty good!
I have one question for you. What made you decide to paint the entire wheel black? Thought you might have painted it like the XR-7 wheel with black inserts. Not that it's bad, they look good.
I thought about painting them like that, but I was trying to go for a look that would make the wheels seem less 'busy'. The low gloss black all over seemed to have done the trick. And I really didn't want to tape it off either so it worked out pretty well. :) Plus, I've been a fan of black on black wheels for quite some time...
Kind of sinister looking.
Doo Hoo, You forgot to remove the outside wheel weights. I think it will look good on your all black car. Are they flat black?
I PAINTED MINE WITH HIGH TEMP PAINT TWO YEAR'S AGO HOLD'S UP REAL GOOD.THE SECOND PIC IS ONE OF THE RIM'S ON MY CAR WHEN SHE COUGHT ON FIRE :flame: THE PAINT HELD REAL GOOD.IT LOOK'S WORSE THAN THE PIC SHOW'S BUT IT WILL CLEAN UP
Agreed, that does look good. :D
Yeah, I noticed that after I painted it. Oh well it needs a couple more coats anyways. As for the paint, it's low gloss black engine paint.
thats the same stuff i used on my chrome trim on my V6 bird, works great
Cool. The whole car will have a blended sort of "monochromatic" look. I like it :D .
