yep, thats right. im going to go gold/bronze

question is, should i keep the chrome lip? or jus go all the way

 

white with purple lip FTW!

 

what kind of rims??

 

Paint the lip too IMO.

 

I would paint the lip.

 

yes paint the lip

 

lip painted and all black

 

Keep the lip

 

well here it is.

 

did you even sand them.....

looks really blotchy

 

yeah, could be the pics.


looks great in person

 

not the best prep work done, it really shows, and a bad choice in color. i say

 

i would of gone like a darker color bronze.......

 

from the pics they dont look too good. did u just paint over the silver on the wheel? and did u clean the wheels? i duno maybe its just the photo quality. get a better camera and show it off again. n i dont think that if u paint ur wheels u should put em back on the same day. maybe they should dry?

 

should have gone darker man but its cool

 

haha i jus put them on for mounting purposes...i didnt go drive it afterwords

 

get it darker!!!! and get a good camera! what's the pixels on the camera? plz says it's more than 2. my phone is 2.

 

Agreed, they look blotchy and too light. They need some more coats too i think.

 

should not have painted the lip....everyone jus jumped on it and said paint it before even seeing them...the polished lip looked good and would have continued to look good once the rest of the rim was painted

***PAINTED LIP = WRECKED WHEELS***

How does that work then? Most people on here now what his wheels looked like already. I know i did, and i'm pretty sure Vantage, Matt and Freddy knew at the very least, and we all posted before he painted them. It's not the fact that the lip has been painted that ruined them, it's the fact that the job itself is terrible.

 

i think im gonna use that car stripper stuff again on them and wash them off, and do them again. i jus can't find a decent gold/bronze to put on them!?? well and i noticed AFTER i was done the primer can was still in the autozone bag hahahahahahha.

Bud, you can't tell me that you "noticed AFTER" that you didn't use primer. Maybe you just didn't buy it?

 

lawls, fail.

 

not once did i say i used primer.


and yes, i did forget it. i never denied anything saying that i didnt use primer or i just "went" at it.

Maybe the wording was a little too difficult for you.

What I meant was that you couldn't just "forget" that you had primer in the bag. It's impossible to "forget" that you hadn't sprayed your wheels with primer, because primer typically isn't clear (especially when bought from AutoZone).
