Got High Off Spray Fumes!

cause i sprayed my rims a different color!! and some rokr cell pics!!!!

what i had...

some curb rash...

and some more curb rash...

trying to grind down some of that ugliness...

now under the influence, i continue to grind some more ugliness...

putting some spot putty to cover it up...

all over...

sanded down....

now its time for the fumes to get going...

up against the wall...

primered in the *purple haze* garage...

all of them primered (nightime)

the choice of color, simple black...something new for me....

rim done and on the car...

and here is how the car looks now...

and for a bonus!!!

lent my se rims to my boy...so we decided to paint them...gold!

and here are both are cars...he just got the hatch!

overall, not a very difficult thing to do, but has changed the way i look at the car myself...so with that im happy with how it turned out...and sorry for the crappy cell phone pics!!!
