Since this forum moves slow, ill speed it up

Ill update you all with what im WORKing on. Since someone vandilized my rims (spray painted the entire thing silver), It gave me a reason to refinish my Work S1's, and since I loved the way my SSR SP1's looked with my WDP (black face). I decided to do the same with my Works. Instead of going with a plane ole "black" . I'll be more original and go with a "black chrome" look. Granted I completly do all my work, no sence I waste my skills and pay for someone to do this work for me

Anywho, I dont want to bore you with to much stuff to read. So this is another one of my teasers

This is the color im going for.

Unfortunatly. these 3pc wheels are made diff. i didnt know untill i tried takeing them apart. apperantly the FACE is one peice with the barrel. and the lip is a seperate peice. in order to take them apart id what to dismount the tires and then heat up a sealent thats holding it together in the middle. then i take it apart and clean that real good and when i reasemble id have to seal it up GOOD cuz i dont want air leaking. and honeslty i think that task is too much for me. so i just taped it up. granted, can you imagine how easy it would have been if i could take them apart.? crap. o well. im doing th best i can!

I personally like the black on black with the wheels. Looks different, you dont' see to many wheels these days that people have with it. I'd say go for it cause it's different and would look pretty sick on your white car. You seem to be a diy person on painting wheels so shit why not try it.

a buncha three piece wheels are like that, pretty shitty. your best bet is to not take it apart, cause obviously you'll have to reseal it and weld and a whole mess of stuff..

just deal with what you got, don't peal it all apart, you'll end up regretting it.

I like it with the polished lip and painted face. I don't like it all black, I just think it looks tacky.
