I wasn't sure if I should post this in Appearence of if i should put it here since its integra related...so mods if it needs move go ahead and move it.

I decided to paint the extra set of blades I had and decided to go with black with a polished lip. I'm not sure if they are going to stay this color but let me know what you think!







And yes it needs dropped i know

 

hmm woulda looked better if powderoated all black and a drop..........or just normal color and a drop..........hmmm.....but its not that bad IMO.......

 

Nice job. How did you mask the lip?

I just went over the lip with a stick of chapstick, then wiped the paint off after the rest of the wheel dried, the paint doesn't adhere to the chapstick.

Wow, that's a smart way to do it. I like it, I've always loved black rims w/ a polished lip. Looks good!

 

they look good bro, blades rule

 

they look good, i like the lip. i just wouldve gone with a glossier black

 

Photochopped drop.

 

I don't really like the blades in black. I think gunmetal would have been a better color choice.

 

EXTRA set of blades? I cant find me one set damnit &gt;

 

Good god taht looks amazing!!!!! Thanks a lot man, you just gave me motivation to somehow make some money and drop that shiz.

 

Always glad to help people mod the teg!

 

looks pretty good but I would have also gone with a glossier black...It would make the blades stand out more. Black lugs would be tight too...

 

Paint match your sideskirts as well.

Nice job on the wheels.

 

eh...im not really feeling it...good job on painting them but it just dosnt look right...

 

Looking at that house in the backround... Must be nice LOL

 

They look alright, but I think they would have looked better gunmetal or bronze. I dont think blades look good black. I have seen some SIICK gunmetal and bronze powder-coated blades though. Still, good job on the DIY and effort.

 

im not feeling those either, but if u like them then thats all that matters. everyone has a differnent style

 

nice work, they need center caps tho

 

I dont like the wheels themselves much, but the work you did on them is awesome, Ive always thought the idea of chapsticking was kinda shady, proved me wrong.

 

yep..chapsticking actually works...who would have thought that? You could actually use chapstick not only on human lips, but wheel lips too! LOL

 

I like it

 

never really liked blades, but that looks good

 

They look nice, but that is a lot of chapstick. When I painted my blades I used vaseline...
