I was messing around the other day with cars that im selling and i bought white temp spray paint to make for sale signs on them. Well i had an idea to use the temp spray in black and paint one of my rims as a trial test to see what it would look like. Here's the product of my idea. Should i do this to all of them as a final project? Just throw some ideas at me thanks!

Wow. That looks really good actually for spray paint. Hows it look up close?

 

meh, in for better pics, but no sure I want to see them

 

up close had lil imperfections due to the temp spray paint. It was that stuff when your a senior in HS you spray all over your car to let everyone know you've graduated. So all i had to do was wash it off, but honestly everyone thought i got new rims.. or rim! haha

 

that actually does look pretty cool. I like it

I dont know if I would be brave enough to do that to my rims though - but thats just me.

 

I have to say that its pretty unique. Good work.

 

looks good to me

 

I like how it looks like if it was colored like the infamous Kayfunk. I know it's not the same rims, but the color combo is nice.

 

imo, i think it looks better in stock. plus, you'd have to spray paint it a lot to keep it looking like that. but very unique idea, A plus for originality

 

impressive looking results but I'm with Halcyon on the durability issue. and if it does fail miserably in durability you've just officially ruined your wheels.

 

yeah i thought about the durability...but i was going to final produce the final outcome with that nice caliper paint by brush, not spray. The spray was just a temp trial run to get a look of how it was going to look.

 

+1 on the creativity

 

I would get the whole thing powder coated Black.

 

go for it.

 

 

I like the idea. I say go ahead and do all 4, just make sure you properly prep the surface and clearcoat it for durability.

 

First time I've seen someone with this painting idea on the stock wheels. Actually looks pretty good. I can't stand the 17'' stockers.... 100% better imo.

It's still kind of weird but it's definitely an improvement. Just do a very good job painting them. Don't go half-assed or it will completely ruin the look you are trying to pull off.

 

Looks good.Do all four, post good pics

 

It will look GREAT at night but during the day when the sun hits the rims directly, I think it would look weird. IMO
But I wouldn't know.. TRY THEM OUT!

I'm gonna paint my stock 17's Black with red lip/outer edge
