Nice! Those wheels look great now. Definitely make your car look meaner. I've gotta say you've done a great job!

looking good man, just a heads up if you want it more glossy load up on lots of layers of clearcoat, makes it shine and also helps to protect it

Jeez, I feel for you Xenocide.
At least you got some really good looking rims after all that work.

Nice job. I especially like the way you masked the wheels with pieces of cardboard. Clever!

they look dusty because you used flat paint with that stuff you have to make sure you coat very evenly or its gets blotchy really easy
