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.

Respect

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!

The gold looks really good. I was thinking of painting my stock tourings, but your pictures had given me the green light
