Gunmetal 90-91 LX Alloys! *PICS*

[maz94protege]

Sup guys, well here is the improvement on the rims. Originally they where bradens. Then he sold them to wil. and I bought them from him. Better then Steelys. Braden had i guess tried to polish one of them. and it got scratched to hell. so i decided to change their color.

BEFORE:




After:






ITs DUPLICOLORS Wheel paint. Approx $4.60 a can. 1 can did all 4 14'' wheels. i only did one coat. ill be doing another one when i get new tires, cause ill dismount the tires and get the inside of the wheels and the lip. right now it looks kinda like i have a polished lip. Also im applying a Clearcoat after i do the next coat of paint. Should be awsome when im finished.

Cheap, easy, and improves appearance.

wow...that looks awesome! Do you have a close up pic? I hope that the paint will not peel off after a few months, but the clear coat should take car of that once you spray it on!

oh, you havent heard have you? ive had a BP since last month. it was kinda a secret project until i got it swapped in. had it running, everything was cool...until i got boost crazy. now, the B6 is back in until i can afford to fix the turbo BP....

BTW, yes, im still trying to sell it.

[bruce95fmla]

What did you get a gtx motor ...
or a factory bp motor with boost ..
What did you blow up .. the piston.???

[maz94protege]

lol. im ordering springs soon, and i had a lil overspray on the tires, so i didnt post a closeup. But tires are bald and gointo be replaced so i didnt worry bout overspray at the time. Ill wash my car and take a close up with i scrub th overspray off.

nice gt wheels. love that dark red!
