painted my stock rims gunmetal
hey every1,
I just finished painting the inside wells of my stockers gunmetal, following the write up ZeroBanger had on here not too long ago. They look GREAT! All ive done so far is 4 color coats on the inside. heres basically what i did:
-remove ALL brake dust and road grime however u want to.
-scuff up original finish with 400grit sandpaper.
-remove tires, centercaps, and wheel weights.
-paint.
The picture link is http://www.digitalpose.com/mbrapp/al...id=39740&vid=1

lemme know what you think.....btw this cost me basically ~$20 rather than powdercoating them for $60/rim.

im letting them dry until 2morrow afternoon to be safe...then doing about 6 or 7 coats on the front and clearcoating that, then hopefully my new tires will be in and i can get them mounted and balanced. But the pics will be up 3min after im finished.

haha all the pics are fair game...theres a thread about it in the midwest forum marked "bens BBQ" or something like it....that was the prettiest driveway for about 4 hours though.
