my car will soon be painted graphite today.. im doin all of the work..ill post new pix when done.. so these wheels should be perfect...the rims look very nice upclose. it has flake in em. and coated for extra protection from harsh weather.

i had a set of painted 10th anny rims that i sprayed black. had em on my yellow vert as race tires. i agree with the above comment that they have WAY too much surface area to look really good. i like rota slipstreams though, and they will be the next rims i put on my next rx7.

I have painted mine gunmetal as well, but done a bit different.
The lip around the outside is polished mirror finish- the paint only goes as far as the turbine blades.
Also, I popped the center cap out, polished it to a mirror, and painted the "Mazda" logo red.
I don't have any pics, but I think they look great. The chrome lip and chrome/red really makes it look nicer IMO.

I agree with MikeL. Fix the headlights. You shouldn't drive around with them malfunctioning like that.
I like the wheels but they're sprayed on with $4.95 spray paint? They might look nice now (which they do) but I don't see them looking good for long.
