@torchred02 I see that you painted your stocks black... doesn't look so bad I am currently sketch about doing it to mine... how hard was it and if it isn't too troublesome how did you do it? does the paint handle wear pretty well?

yea new rims are awesome but painting stocks is a cheap way to get a new look.
