yea they came out alright. i put alot of clear on them to help protect them, thats the one thing i learned from doing mine, i never really went in and sprayed each lug nut hole individually. i just put clear over the entire rim and figured it would be fine and no1 would see inside a lug nut hole for it to matter. Well when i put them on the car, the socket wrench started chipping the paint and on one of the rims theres a chip around the lug nut hole. I Learned from my mistakes
