What did you put on the rim in the first picture? Or was the rim from some dumpster? Looks really nice at the end.

i liked the red/black scheme at first
but its getting too popular too quick
just like the black/chrome lip

you know its out of hand when you see it on trucks/suv/big body cars

i used the cans,
believe it or not, im talking about 5 over-spray drops, tiny microscopic drops that i didn't feel till it burned through my skin. I hadn't planned on doing this, so i started the project in shorts and a b-ball jersey. lol. didn't click to me to put long sleeve, pants and gloves on till it was too late.
