Okay, not sure who all remembers me posting a thread a while back of deciding whether to paint my stock wheels red or gold, but yesterday I painted them red as well as painted my wheel wells black and I must say I'm absolutely loving the results! This was a project that I wanted to do as I never plan on selling them since IMO its great to have a spare set of wheels for any possible reason but along with that I wanted to have an option of "looks" for the s and this project hit it right on the moneyhttp://www.s2katlanta.com/forum/images/smilies/grinning-smiley-003.gif The volks are still very alive as personally I don't think I can top that particular look, but this painting of the stocks was a lot of fun and still is a attention getter! Well, enough of the talk enjoy the picshttp://www.s2katlanta.com/forum/images/smilies/food-smiley-004.gif


This is a picture to show the wheel wells and how paint was much needed...

Notice the dramatic difference in the wheel well!

It looks like a flat red but still has a bit of shine in it like it has atleast one coat of clear! You matched it well to the seats though bro!

I don;t even remember you...period. The wheels are ugly as hail, too. Maybe that's cuz red is the worst color ever. Later, QD.
