So i painted my winter rims. THis is the only picture I have of them currently:

I also ordered new emblems so I'm probably gonna debadge the car tomorrow and put back on the headlights that have the whistler mod. Gonna make the car blacked out until the new emblems come in. I'll get a better pic of the rims tomorrow.

J/K of course. From what I can tell the rims look pretty good. What did you use to paint them?

I used high temp engine paint on them. They have about 5 coats on them. I tried clearing them, but it was too humid yesterday. I don't really care if they flake or not, becasue they are the winter rims, but I'm gonna drive around on them for a few days because I think they look pretty cool. Here's a better picture...they are pretty dark:D

I used RustOleum 500 degree engine paint.

Adam- Haven't had the chance to change out headlights yet. Probably do that tomorrow since I have the day off. I would probably go get it tinted tomorrow too, but need to save all I can with the current engine build.

I personally like it and love the look of black on black. The whistler mod headlights will look sick.

that was just to see how the winter wheels would look on the car. The chrome 5 spokes are on and I have new emblems that I just put on the car. I'll post pics up of it tomorrow.

paint your rotors black and put on black stripes and put in black light bulbs

Wouldn't that be unsafe and not pass inspection?

thanks brandon.

Adam- I went to switch the headlights the other day, and the body shop messed up one of the housing and I was too lazy to run to home depot to get a nut and bolt to make it work so I kept the stockers on.
