That looks very good. Your car would look great lowered w/ the painted wheels.

It'll look even better once you lower the car.

I like gold rims, especially on black, but I'm not really feeling it. I somewhat prefer the satin OEM finish of the '06 rims.

not bad man, big ***** to do a job like that, but i think its the wrong shade of gold

heres my volk gold on black. They look to have more yellow. Did you undercoat, or spray gold straight onto the polised stock finish

Not my cup of tea, but it turned out pretty good.

You could always break out another can/color if it didn't turn out right.

NOT BAD!!! you actuallly painted them a color that is nice, you can still see the rim and everything. soo many times people paint them dark *** black and they look like crap imo.

Those really look great! Now all you need is nice gold door handles to match! Take that coming from a girl...

hey! I was actually thinking of doing that but since you touch the door handle all the time, maybe the paint would come off... but I think it would look great. thanks!
