    Default painted my rims...

    i bought the 5zigen fn01rc's from a friend of mine. 2 had minor curb rash 2 were brand new but they were different colors. i had the curb rash fixed by Bucky and i painted my rims with a friend. we painted them graphite. the paint has a textured look to it which i thought was cool. let me know what you think.
    before:





    after:
    (the rims are darker than it appears...the lighting is messing with the color)



    this what they look like out in the sun

    lol my uncle used cinder blocks back in his day while doing something under a car. ..surprisingly the car fell on his hand(cinder blocks gave way); he had to get stitches(Miracle) but since your car is plastic you probably gonna be ok

    What kinda paint did you put on those wheels? Is it just textured spray paint?

    You can also use that little POS jack and then put a normal hydraulic jack under it once it gets high enough
