Default Got bored and painted my rims.

Decided to sand down and paint my rims one day. I think they turned out pretty decent. Atleast more attractive than they were before. Especially since I don't think alot of people like the 'starfish' GSRs.

Not a fan of painted OEM wheels, but i think they look pretty good. They look like they could almost be OEM.

Weird what people do when they're bored. Someone I know last week got so bored they decided to primer their old ebay intake and use it.
