How much did you end up spending to paint the rims? It looks like it turned out great. Black Rims with a polished lip, came out good.

thanks guys, im DEFINETLY not a great painter and there not perfect by any means, but i think they look pretty good.
i used two cans of black, can of clear, sos pads, 1000 sand paper, and lots of time lol

it was actually an enjoyable project for me. you could easily do it in two days but i did mine in three just cause i had work and a couple othere things slowing me down

i spent about 25 bucks in supplies, no big deal really

ya i kno i thought about it, but after doing the rims i was like im tired of painting for now.

i love the way they look dropped, but i dont wanna have the worry of scrapping everywhere i go, im a fast driver and i dont wanna be worried everytime i drive my car, so i think im gunna wait a while on the drop.
