    Primed and painted now. There sitting out in the sun to cure for a few hours...

    Metallic charcoal in white night squirts paint from bunnos. $8 a can. I used 1 can of primer then 1.5 cans of paint.... Pics don't do the metallic justice. There's heaps of metallic particles in the paint.

    Looks really good dude. im too scared to paint wheels now after my epic fk up when i originally tried painting my GTI ones lol
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    Thanks mate. As long as there's enough prep and cleaning you really can't gp wrong, unless you spray it way too close and heavy then you will get runs... I bought a uni-pro trigger gun which clips onto the spray can and makes it like a spray gun. It made the job a million times easier than using a spray can alone as I find after a while, my fingers hurt and start to cramp.
