Default Painted the stock Fanblades. Pics inside

Well, after hours of hard work and many beers, they are finally done. Thanks to my buddy. He did the job and I think they turnout pretty good for an amateur who had limited tools and space (2 car garage)

Next inline is lowering springs


Here are the pics:







What do you think?

Looks sick and professionally done, how many coats (clear and paint?) did you bake it?

not professional at all. me an my buddy simply went at it in the garrage. i prep the wheels and he sprayed them.


just regular gloss black spray paint. We primed the wheels first of course. about 3 coats each.

I didnt bake it. they dried up and we put them on the car and i drove home (60 miles)

Thanks a lot!

looks better on your car then it did on the example car. Very nice man, I recommend a black billet grille next, like the roush or shelby one.
