Paint the gun metal wheels flat black??
I dont have enough money to be buying crazy wheels, body kits, etc, but I wanna make my car look slightly different than stock. Im probably gonna take off the wing(again), and Im thinking of painting my wheels black. I like the look of flat black wheels on a PY ITR, but I dont think Ive seen any STOCK gun metals painted black on a PY ITR. If anyone has any pics, Id appreciate it.

Don't paint them black...one guy did that here in toronto and it looked SOOOO UGGGLLLYYY everyone was laughing at him.He tried to sell them but no one wanted them, I think his mom disoWned him after.
If you want to paint somthing black get a set of cheapo rims and paint them...you can tell everyone they are your hardcore track wheels, that way you have an excuse so people don't laugh at you *** for trying to be jdm.
Please don't deface nice R wheels.

i guess you guys think Spoons look like crap right?
black rims are simple, look good on any color car.
