omg wicked your rims look sick now i got to go do that...hope mine turn out half as good, dont want to be a bother but can u put up some more pics i cant get over it they look so good, how long did it take u to finish all ur rims too?

WickedSS2005 08-20-2007 11:56 AM

It took me a few months actually. I worked on them over weekends and hand sanded the stock paint down to the bare metal, the whole rim. It was a little more involved than the how-to's on here. I would say if I guessed, about 80 hours total. Midnight black metallic with GM victory red. Here's more pics fo ya.......

Thanks for the props!! I had to fill in the stock holes because the top two were 1/2 way visible. The pieces are just held on by 3m tape on the sides and an adhesive used on windshield for the center piece.

I was originally going to just leave the wheel stock gunmetal with the metallic black spokes, but then I had a revelation after I got the spokes sanded. After that I used paint stripper.;) The paint/taping off was the most time consuming after I stripped the paint.
