No more pics ATM but I'll post more pics ASAP, for all of you considering doing this.

I was thinking about getting new rims, but did this as an alternative. It only cost me a total of $20.00+tax (4.99 per can) and about 3-4 hours to do everything.

So if you like your rims but would probably like it more if they were black, gold, gunmetal or whatever this the perfect solution. The cool thing is that it doesn't look like cheesy DIY spray paint.

A lot of people either think I got new rims or got them powder coated. Like I said, even I'm surprised how good they turned out.

Sure beats about 200 bucks or more per wheel.
