Searched for pictures of painted stock rims and could only find 2. (Bronze & gloss black) Does anyone have pictures they can post please. I'm looking of for either gunmetal or flat black...or anything else that would look good on a Silver EP.

Thanks!

I have pics of my flat black ones with red H centers, but WTDR is down and I can't shrink my files small enough to be an attachment on here. If you want to see the pics, send me an email (diffleyp@hotmail.com) <--Click here

BlackSi613nin: Once you've washed your car can you remember to post the pics for me?

Thanks much!

How did you paint your rims? Do you have any problems with the paint chipping off from rocks and such?

I cleaned my wheels really well and scuffed them up and used spray paint. I just put them on the car for the first time yesterday. I got a couple scratches on the inside from the shop that mounted the tires, but other than that they look good. Here's a pic:

I think because these rims have a flat face with no lip, they will tend to chip easier... I might have them powdercoated next winter.
