Black Wheels, Gold Lip, Gold Calipers.
Well I only got one done today

but I got pictures, hince this is before clear coat and all that jazz.

Anyway heres some quick shots I popped of the wheels:




I know my tape line for the lip wasn't "exactly" straight, but hey i'm no pro painter so I don't care haha and I tried to leave the bronze kind of "sparkling" through the black on the sides of the spokes which is what the second shots attempting to show lol Still can't decide if I like them

I rattle canned them. I can paint hella good when I have time. If I woulda had more then an hour to do these I woulda had that lip line perfect. I'll have all evening tomorrow though. So i'll probably be stipping the black off and taking the wheels back to the original gold.

It would look so much better if the orange on the lip matched the gold calipers.

if you are going to do something, do it right. the taping is terrible and your painting sucks. look at all the textured spots in the photos. you can rattle can wheels and make them look good, just put effort into it

and Its actually a pretty bright gold when its in person, but pics take it down for some reason
