Looks good, better than the green, but I think I like them the same this color as stripped. Your side skirts and trim are in serious need of paint!

I think it looked better polished. Black wheels with chrome lips got old fast.

yeah you guys didn't see how terrible they looked when they were "polished" because they were awful in person trust me...and I knew I'd never actually sand them all down and polish them so I figured I'd go with black...then added the flake to give them a little different look

I liked the green better. It was more "bold"

I'd paint that side trim that looks faded to hell!

In the first picture, it looks like your door is aligned correctly.

It certainly doesn't look bad, but polished would have been awesome.

Ohh, You should try using a wire wheel to strip it if you haven't already. I used on my powder coated bike frame that a sand blaster couldn't even touch. You probably know this already though. I you want to do that I would help you out.

Looks good. Have you thought about painting the lip black too? I think that's would look great.

Looks comparatively good to the polished look, either way is a win for me, good job bro, looks really nice man.

did you even read what I posted? they weren't polished they were stripped to bear metal with a lot of left over stock primer that just wouldn't come off...and I don't have the time or money to polish them properly so they needed to be painted to make them look halfway decent...the pics I posted of them when they were "polished" made them look perfect...when in reality they were sh.it

i liked the polished 10x's better.
black is a VERY last resort lazy mans color.

when you a chance touch up your rocker panels and your side moldings with some flat black vinyl paint.

then you shouldove spray painted them silver with the flaky clear coat. an all silver wheel with a good amount of clear will bling just like a fully polished wheel.... minus a few things but im sure you wouldove been happy with it

for once Im not going to bash. This is what you need:

Keep the black wheels.
Paint the lip, well the entire car since the fender doesnt match. Then paint the fogs, fender and trim. It'll look hawt then.
