Default . . : : Painted my LS-stocks : : . .

I painted my LS stocks yesterday. Kept the lip and center cap silver and the rest is now gun metal. On top of that i got some new Hankook Ventus tires to kept me stuck to the floor Ill try to get pics today.

PS. They come out so good, the guys doing to my tires were sweating them all day. Until some asain pulled up in a Skyline r32

Looks good, except you should definately put the amber corners back on.

I dont really want to swith the lights right now. But maybe later on. In a few months ill have JDM front so they wont matter. i also have a question. I painted them with spray paint made for wheels, but if i scratch it it comes off, thats how i got extra off the lip. If i wash my car will it start to chip off?
