Default FINALLY painted my wheels

been saying I would do it for many months now, finally got around to getting it done after getting my wheels re-balanced (no weights on the outside). Made a pretty drastic difference in the way the car looks, I think. I think it came out pretty nice. :thumbup:

:thumbup: Pat...
I remember you saying you were going to do it when some guy posted some nice pictures of a black civic hatchback with 95 GSR rims painted gunmetal...

looks like a million dollars...

BTW, did you paint the inside of the wheels?
how many coats? what paint (color and brand and price)?
