Need some opinions on rims

[Z32redondo]

These are the ones that the finish has been eaten off of by some cleaning chemical. So im planning on sand blasting them and getting them painted like this. Lemme know what you think, this is just a quick paint job I did. The job I did was really shitty but give me some ideas as to what to do and would like it to be gunmetal or black.

Ya I did that in like 10 minutes Ima bust out the sharpie when I get them and do some sketch's on them. 2 of the rims clear coats are fucked so they have to be sandblasted ar sanded a bit and buffed then have a new clear coat on them...Might as well give them a paint job while I am gettin a clear coat.

i say paint them black..

i think u should leave the face of the rim and paint the sides of the spokes black....like how u did but reversed

[Sammich]

puahahhahahahahhaah btw dont do that to those rims. either paint them black or back silver

[Sammich]

you dont even have to sand blast. get some, i think its 200 grit sandpaper, where the paint will adhese and paint them bad boys

I was thinking about that but didnt want them look like i had brake dust along the inside of the rim. IDK I may do what you did and keep what I did gunmetal, like mix my idea with yours, then keep the center cap silver. HMMM

[Outphase]

No. Get them Bronze or Gunmetal, No black.

My dads got a friend that has a sand blast machine so i would get to do it fast and for free. Overall the whole project with paint and buying everything shouldnt be to much. If anyone knows a good chroming company around atl let me know I may go that route also if it dosent break the bank to much.

[Repost Squintz]

paint it maroon like your ride, well at least the spokes, and then rest black

[uproot]

bronze might look good

I like the bronze idea I think it will go nicely with the car, maybe gunmetal.
