[Demoniam]

that looks good! what are you doing to the center caps?

 

[Beau M]

Wow. they do look good. And, your phone camera is pretty good too! Nice job.

 

[justanothermp5]

thanks for all the compliments guys, and yea the phone was like 200 bucks so it better do a good job lol
i was planning on doin the centercaps black cuz i ave alot of black accents on my car so i figured it would look good
just finished clear coating the first wheel, while im waiting for it to dry im gonna start the second one, and i must say it came out better then i thought i could do (first)

Looks awesome man, you did a great job. Matches the color of the car well...

I remember painting mine last summer. The paint quality is good but chips easily after a while, so don't pressure wash them.

Oh and color match the center caps. It doesn't look good with a different color IMO.

Just tape up the logo on each center cap, then paint and remove. That's how I did mine...

 

[justanothermp5]

yea i put a clear coat on mine but i would never pressure wash them in the first place lol and i agree with ur tastes, i painted my centercap black and it looks kinda weird
prob gonna tape up the black emblem and spray the rest gold, that would prob look good
