I just got my wheels back from a friend. He is going to paint my brake calipers next weekend, and then I'll finally be ready to do my 5lug/rear disc conversion. Woot! We used the same paint code as my car for the red lip.

Those aren't scratches on the lip just some fuzz from the carpet.

No, its automotive paint. A couple of my friends are bodymen at toyota. Trying to get them to paint my whole car next.(lol2)

this was practice for me with some new supplies i got, just did it in my garage. wanted a more matte look, but didn't come out as planned.

Still looks good though.(thumb)

I've wanted some real Ray's time attacks for a while, but I'm too poor, lol. So I did the next best thing.

p.s. I like your 6, that thing looks tuff.(cool)
 
Subbin to see installed pics! (pics)

Any idea on when your installing them??

My friend is painting my calipers this weekend, so hopefully the following weekend I'll do the 5lug/rear disc swap and mount them. I was just going to put the tires they had back on, but they came out so good I may just buy new tires for them.
