#99290, "My freshly coated rims :D"




          

Well here they are, I snapped a few pics of my freshly coated rims. It's a gloss black with a high gloss clear. I had the guy leave the center caps alone as I may decide to change from using them to not using them once in a while. Now all I gotta do is get some extra dough for tires then they can go on. They look great compared to what they did before hand. Two had horrible curb rash (you can still see where it was on the one if you look closely, but you've gotta be looking and it was my choice to not have them resanded and recoated to perfection) they all had some sort of damage to the coating that came on them so I'm glad they look like new now and I got a nice change of color

Enough with the babbling, on with the pics...

I'm not sure if they're wide enough for the Evo, but if they are, then they will spend time on both cars

They're beautiful.

By coated, you mean powdercoated i hope.....

It'd be a damn shame for road debris to mess those up.

*jealous*

Personally, i'd leave the center cap off. Looks way better without, even if it was paint-matched. Then again, it's your car. Do what YOU like.

Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....

Yeah I wasn't sure how the all black would look, but seeing yours on made me think they'd look fine.

Man seems very few people are liking the center cap. Once I actually get tires for them and get 'em on then I can take pics of both ways and decide for sure. I kinda like the way they look with the center in. Gives it just that little bit of color they need like the red on yours EZ

Since I only give out one compliment a quarter and EZ got the last one, your rims look gay Cory. I would say they fit you though. Wing the center caps out your window at your neighbor while he is cutting the grass. He will think its funny trust me.
