By the way, I noticed you have different tires. Your car is almost brand new and you already have new tires?

The factory color of the MR BBS rims was to light for the GG of the car. In the sun the color contrast bothered me which is why I painted them a much darker grey than the GG on the car. I don't feel the rims should be a lighter shade than the color of the car. Not to mention, I like dark rims on my cars. I usally don't like gold, silver, or light gunmetal shades on my rims. It's just a matter of opinion, thanks for letting me know yours.

You painted them very nicely, but it's a very expensive set of BBS's. Me personally I'd keep them stock paint but since you said their stock color didnt suit your taste then by all means, change it. Again, awesome job with the color scheme but if I had those on my evo I'd leave them stock.

yours turned out very good, im thinking about doing this to my IX MR wheels, but what do u guys think about a ApexSilver Lip? I got a Apex Silver MR. I dont like having the REALLY dark rims becuase they blend too well with the tire.
