Was bored so thought I would paint my stock wheels. People are always wondering what they look like so here they are.

I think it looks pretty tight but would need to see it in person

I used a Dupont FLat Black wheel paint and no clear coat.

Do you have a close up picture of these?

Do you guys think this would look good on a nhbp ep3?

Props on completing a project, I just hate black wheels on 99% of the cars I see them on.

nah I like the black.

Do you think flat black with red lugs will look good on a nhbp?

I don't see why it wouldn't...

just don't use aftermarket lugs or you will run into problems. get a set of stock lugs powder coated or paint them.

mine are chipping a little. no idea what kind of paint because they were like this when i bought the car. Thinking of going back to stock or redoing it correctly with couple of coats and some clear.

I've thought about painting my stock wheels, seeing this makes me want to do it. I only use them in the winter though
