just lemme know.
also. im redoing my wheels on the vette so i will be devoting a dat or 2 to rims, using my new paint setup
not sure when...
Example of rims i did
PC stocks...
and i do calipers as well
for more cars ive done just ask
OHHHH and FYI those rims are DIRRRRTY, forgot to wash them WITH the car... lol i also need to paint the CORVETTE letting on my calipers black.... so i could really use somebody that will want to spend a day working on cars...

1 pint of black paint+1 pint of DB. (a pint is the smallest amount that they will mix for you.)+ clear coat etc. im going to be redoing my rims so yeah whenever your ready i am too. im going to go buy another paint set (roughly 1200... haha) in the next few days hopefully.
just pick some dates and throw them at me and we will work something out. PMed you my #
EDIT you will have extra black paint for touchup AND PLENTYYYYYYY extra blue paint for other things like calipers or engine
EX: Letters, covers etc

well my paint from wesco was like $220 i think... cant remember (thats w/o clearcoat) but i'll go 1/2 in with u on some. and i still have plenty of reducer as well. black paint should be cheaper. its the blue lip thats going to cost alot. but a pint is a TON when it comes to painting a lip and some engine parts. i used like 1/10000th of the can when doing the lip, haha (more like 1/10th
just lemme know what you want to do and how far you want to take the wheels.
