Painted stockers Bronze...sweet!!!!!!
close up on the wheels, 3 more pics comming, i have only two done and wanted to see the differnce on the two, stock sliver and these.........It has been an overwhelming opinion that the bronze looks unreal! everyone loves em and cant beleive people are paying thousands for aftermarket when you have nice lightweight wheels to be painted, you can do white, silver, gunmetal, bronze and gold....4 cans of paint, and 1 or 2 clearcoat...DUPLICOLOR WHEEL PAINT and there clearcoat..
Take wheels of, you can keep on the tire, wash clean, wet sand 800 grit, tape of tire and paint then clear. Looks factory and is an unreal product. you shoudl give it a try.

i love bronze and like the blue bronze carbon fibre look, gunmetal was the other choice but i wanted to be a little different since ive seen many black/gunmetal wheels in my area on a lot of cars.

the paint is awesome, i had to drive it the day i did it and no chips, it is rock hard. i did my spoiler myself, cost me a few dollars for sandpaper. i love paintitng and did all the work myself. its like a hobby.

i was gonna do black too but decided to break up the colors a little so did the bronze, i love it, and the best modd ever, why spend $3000 on wheels when you already have a gorgeous lightweight enkie and all you have to do is paint em for a new look.
good luck!

Well...
Your a damn artist. How many coats of color did you put on and how far away did you hold the can? I would love to do this to my car buy have no artistic talent whatsoever.

i did 6 coats, a full can on each wheels, taped the tire off nice, about 5 inches from the wheel is far enough. then finish off with a few coats of clear. th emost important is sanding EVERYTHING before you start painting and clean of with acetone.
thanks for the compliment.
