Painted My Rims
« on: September 01, 2009, 03:30:10 PM »
So I decided that I got tired of the silver factory rims and decided to paint them. It took me about 4 hours but I think they look a lot nicer. I painted them because I havent been able to find a nice set of rims that I would want to buy. Well here are the pics that me and my boy took during the whole process.







Here are the side pics taken the next day.



They are all done and are back on my baby now.

They look pretty good, You might want to start a little earlier next time so you don't have to use a flashlight. LOL
