good stuff man, did u follow the DIY from the tech section? thats what I used, and our wheels came out purrrrfect.
|
no i didnt i jus cleaned it up
got the rim paint from canadian tire and the clear coat aswell for the wheels painted teh wheels couple of layers and then like 2 or 3 coats of clear coat |
did u sand them before you painted, or just wipe em off, then paint them?
|

|
wow look amazing, good work bro
|
new pics added
gota do the back still |
i want to get some colored lug nuts but dont no what color to get. any suggestions?
|
Pink!
|
LOL
i was thinking more of red and also painting the calipers red. also got my clear side markers just came in today, waiting on the clear bumper lights to come in. |
bro i was gonna ask u when i met u but i forgot, what headlights are those, i kind of really like them...
|
halo projectors, lota ppl dont like it because of the bubble where the fog lights are they come black housed and chrome, for u sinceu got that black and red theme going id say black housing would b better...plus the halo's are more visible on teh black housed ones. mine barely see it cause of the chrome,
but ye i dont mind them, there alrite still, good light output, gona put in hid's soon so should be good. |
well i like them but i dont want that stupid ass halo ring on at nite, i mean we dont drive bimmers!
|
^^ try these....no halos....and i think they're hot...

ya man now those are ------- HAWT! but but those corner lamps look a little too futuristic for me....
|
lol
i dont have my halo's on at night i dont even use them. just use the headlights and fogs |
black DA+ dark wheels= sexyness. rip my black out 92teg w. black slipstreams
|
man this really sucks! rims looked like they were in good shape too! i would have sooo traded with you for my gunmetal hammer heads!
|
lol nah man the rims hav some corrosion stuff and lil curb rash i jus cleaned it up a bit
|
thusee you should have stripped the rims and scuffed em. after awhile they will chip and flake, cause its not adheiring properly.
or you prolly dont care lol cause they were just practice? |
actually i like how it looks without the clear coat, like the matte finish on that color.
|
slam her more!
|
lol im probably gona sand blast em all and redo it, when i was mounting the tires to the rim it started to flake a lil so i was careful not to scratch anything, but ye im probably gona sand blast cause i luv this color on these rims, a whole lot better than the original silver makes it look more aggressive,
im gona add a lip kit so i dont wana slam it to much nex thing u no the speed bumps meet my lip..... last year i was slammed like 2 inches off the ground friggin ruff ride didnt like it to much. so ye i like this drop and it rides smooth still, just gota get the front camber kit. if anyone has or knows any good places not to expensive let me know need em soon before the road eats up my generals. |
well, the ride looks nice with those wheels man.
|
lol ye
|
definatly keep the same color if you refinish them again.
i did my LS mesh wheels a royal blue color in a high gloss enamel for my 94 civic sedan. no scuffs scratches or nothing, look mint actually waxed them once and washing them is a breeze too. would post a pic but my photobucket is fuked josh saw them , there bright. |
any idea how much sand blasting would b for 4 rims
|
lookin good
