I got 16" Riken Mesh about a year ago but haven't put them yet.... BTW, how much does it cost to polish them? Mine probably needs polish too. I am also thinking painting mesh part black

That's ok. I just wanted to have an idea in general. It seems it's going to be costly than I thought, I now don't think polishing is worth thing to do for my wheels...

Any updates on how much it would cost and how they turn out? And if possible, do you know what type of paint you used?

I do not remember detail since it was a couple years back... I just used black splay can, nothing special. I had two of my wheels repaired because they did not hold air well. I think cost was close to $100 per wheel but I do not reacll the price exactly.

Ohk cheers for the info, i picked up some black engine enamel in a spray can but im hesitating on painying them because it's tricky to mask the polished lip properly so i might have it done professionally.
