That looks really good. I still have my stock 6er rims, I should paint them and sell them

took about 3 hours to do all of them....took wheels off, sanded on the gray areas, masked off "polished or machined" spokes, then bomb-canned it in gloss black, clear coated, then un-masked and polished all the shiny parts (in case of overspray and to look good lol)....still no chips, knicks, etc. and if i got any it'd be simple to touch up... found out later that sheby makes a wheel similar to this in large sizes, but i just like tinkering with ford's ideas, because they did very well, just need lil details to make it look a lil bit better (PS I was a design major lol, so i look for all that stuff)

Great job on the rims london.moss. A friend had suggested I do something like that but wasnt sure about the look. What grit sand paper did you use and what brand of paint?

i think i used 320....can't really quote me on that, as i've been focusing all my time on my mopar to get it ready for a show....maybe not even that rough...just enough to scuff it up a bit...paint was just regular department store spray paint...could use higher quality wheel paint, but the cheaper stuff does just as well...thanks for compliments
