"Vintage Gold" wheels on my 2012 GT Mustang

Spent about 4 hours doing this today. Yes, some people will make fun of me for using plasti-dip, but i love the way it came out, and like it a lot more than the gunmetal.

Did you "glossified" them or kept the matte looking? I just bought 4 cans of aluminum to do my BMW X3 rims. BTW, the came out looking great.

I did about 2 layers of gloss on each. Not very glossy bit not completely flat either.

Not to my liking but each to their own. Looks a bit "rice" to me. Enjoy.

They look great. I used duplicolor graphite wheel paint on my last car. Went on easy and touched up easy in case of rock chips. Nobody believed I did it with a spray can lol

I didn't think I would like it, but I actually really do. Something different and eye catching. Nice work. Do you think you will get them painted for a longer lasting finish?
