Painted my rims and valve cover for Import Alliance....

[roche]

What do you guys think? Personally I hate the white rims, they didn't turn out like I invisioned in my head. I'll probably go back to black soon. I'm gonna sand and polish the letters on the VC and my gf is supposed to come over later and do some airbrush work on it. I'll update the pic when its done.

Should take a blade to the letters and polish them back out, and then have your girl airbrush something sick on it

As in, Dremel them out and make it blank? I'm considering that for the next change, but she has to get used to using the airbrush first. She's really good with brushes but she's never used the airbrush.

Well, in the past, I have just taped around the letters, then took a razor blaze and scape the letters clean, then wetsand them with 400 then 1000 and they come out clean as sh!t. Even if she just stincled(sp) something on the c, it would look decent. just my :2cents:

Oh I misunderstood you. Yeah I was just gonna sand the paint and polish the letters. But I might get her to paint them black or something instead.

^Sounds good, looking forward to see the outcome. Gotta do something off the wall for Import Alliance as there will be a bunch of sick paint jobs there. LOL!!! +1 for ya

I think the valve cover looks really good. Personally I think white rims in general don't look good, but on a black car especially. Like you said, black ftw.

Yeah, I thought it would look good, but they're just kinda meh...
I'll be going to black or maybe bronze in the next couple weeks.

Those were the two colors I was stuck between for mine. Opted for black, but bronze is still sexy as hell on a black car :goodjob:
