So here are some process pics
 First - reminder of how my wheels looked then i bought them: They there repianted already into the silver - they where White in color originally... Just in case - these are Volk Racing Daytona. I found a wheel shop that managed to polish the lips of the wheels, and clearcoat them with special clearcoat for aluminium, so after i got them back, i started to sand sand sand.... Covered the polished lip so that it aint got scratched. After long sanding - shooted 2 component primer, and it was back again to sanding with wet 1000grit... damn my fingers heart  Started masking the lips again to avoind paint hitting on them:   After all the masking was done - it was time for the damn paint on witch i was debating so damn long.... I chosed HOK gun metal grey pearl and i think i vent right way Here they are in all the glory + i added Rays / Volk stickers to them to make these wheels look more modern        So thanks for everyone who voted in my Poll - and thanks for helping me out on decidion Soon these wheels will go on my Babe  -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
