I just used engine paint. It works pretty good. It's actually suppose to have red metallic paint along the lip, but the primer I used was too dark, so you can't notice it in the pics. That's why I'm planning on redoing them like this weekend.
do you have pic of the rims in close up??? like you have it right now? because i want to do it to mine but i dont know if black is going to look too dark or should i use something like a dark gunmetal.
thank you
thank you
