Marcus18 Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 well I have stock TSTE rims they are faded white with brake dust all over them and the paint is chiped up. so....if I paint them what do you think and black? on a white car. I don't have the cash for new rims. marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 So you want to paint the stock wheels black? If so, I don't think it would look that great on a white car. The stock white looks pretty good when they have new/nice paint on them. I'd repaint them the stock color or either a light gray, possibly a gray similar to that on my stock 93 wheels http://photo.starblvd.net/mfewtrail/2-1-1-1077400423?m=1&pg=1&ro=0&co=0 or either a bit darker?? EDIT: Marcus, do you have photoshop? I'd like to see what they would look like black anyways, maybe that would help in your decision.

Marcus18 Posted February 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 sorry it's alittle small. the bumper and hood look weird because I photoshoped them white because they are grey in the photo. marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gimp19 Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 I hated the stock hubcaps that came with my car and couldn't find any nice wheels for a good price. So I went to the junkyard and bough some crosslace wheels and painted them black, I just used a couple coats of good quality gloss black paint and some clearcoat. They've been like this for 3-4 years and still look pretty good, in the summer I rinse them off and cover them with black magic. http://www.imagestation.com/mypictures/inbox/view.html?id=4187043671&url=http%3A//www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid104/p4b4380f4476c4db0748957b42e03b1c7/f9913757.jpg&caption=zarf%20front%203&album_id=4289876885&from_album=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
