I was going to paint my rims today and some feed back would be great, and also could i go to a toyota delearship and order the little caps for my stock alloys? All 4 of my wheels are missing them.

Your car is red, so I think you should go with bronze. Go buy some dupli-color wheel paint. My buddy painted his on a black civic. It looks really good. I think it would look great with your car too.

i have a red 95 and i painted mine gunmetal... they turned out really nice.
 I just did a layer of dark primer, several layers of paint...then a ****ton of clear coat. They are holding up nicely too. |
