Ppl with stock painted wheels...
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

ouch! yea chippage is never a good thing. yea i made sure the lug holes got taken care of! im a perfectionist like that haha shoulda seen when i tiny thin cat hair landed on the inside of the wheel while the paint was wet... i flipped haha had to get rid of it before i could move on

Here is the pictures i promised of the newly painted wheels. Let me know what you think.

New painted wheel...done by me

Dont mind the water spots and whatnot...i just sprayed and wiped them so they aren't perfect

For about 60 bucks a little of my time....ill take those results!!!
