paint rims or leave stock?
I purchased a set of 2001 CL-P rims recently. Should I get them painted gun metal? Or leave it stock? My car is black 3.2TL. Any comments would be great! thanks

btw there is no reliable powercoater in this city. But there is a place that does good painting for wheels, thats what they do and among other things etc. I aint doing no home spray paint job lol

i would have them done professionally, if u do it on ur own it might crack or peel. then it will start looking shity. and if too pricey i will leave them and save money for the real wheels..

thanks for the replies!
Not going to paint them no more! Going to get them powder coated in gun metal with clear coat etc cost will be around 400-450cdn for all 4 wheels(been calling around)

Yeah, that would look very good... Gunmetal is a sweet color for rims on darker painted cars... Personally I'm planning on getting a set of Legend GS wheels.. (the ones that look like Benz wheels) and getting them dipped in chrome...midnight chrome that is... I think it would look original and luxurious... only bad thing.. They are 15's...maybe 16's
