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? |

We drive these cars hard because it's fun, but hard for these cars means speeds which are generally unsafe or damn near impossible for most cars. At these speeds there's a whole lot more to go wrong, a whole lot quicker, and one thing that is off can put off the entire 4wd rally advantage when you're least expecting it.
