No go on the powdercoating, so I painted them. What do you think?

I like it.

Maybe you should start your own business. :)

I tried to get them bare with my home sandblaster, and it was a no go. How that dude skinned them up as bad as he did I do not know. It would have doubled the price to have the coating guy do all of it.

Powder coating is definately one way to make them unique, and one of a kind is the way to go...

Dark rims don't look good at all in my opinion, I think they are a fad just like ranch dressing was in the 90's.

Read my other thread on these wheels. I had a lot of s**t to cover up.[?|]

Thanks. I just hope they hold up. They turned out great. Wish me luck on the final two.

Oh ya, these are the one that were torn all to hell, well crap man, good luck to you. I know I said I don't like dark rims but lots of people think they are the bee's knees.

No offense, but they look ugly. Maybe the picture is bad...
