Technology Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 A million times better than the black center/polished lip look. That was played out before it even began. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D_Venable Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) not my taste, but it's begging for some white lettering on the tires Edited January 12, 2013 by D_Venable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted January 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) ^ haha moto I know. Now I have to paint all my drift spares black so they match! Thanks for the compliments guys, I'm really happy with how it came out, so mean looking now. D- I'm thinking silver lettering.... Hmmm Drift day tomorrow, action shots to come.

yzrider Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Ive never seen paint make such a huge difference to the same set of wheels. It looks absolutely fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonnieJ Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) Looks good ive just never been a fan of the blacked out look. Gold bolts would make it pop IMO Edited January 12, 2013 by RonnieJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mig8788 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Looks so much better. Black and red go so well together. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotStock88 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Dang that window tent is dark. Those wheels look absolutely sick and that color on the wheels makes the whole car just comes together now. Very tasteful IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotStock88 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hard to believe you traded 4 shp 9" wheels for those bad boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmyers151 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I had all black wheels before it was cool... I dig it, although I would have tried matte centers to show off the angles and details of the spokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Yeah I hear you Dale. I almost lightly sanded the faces, and still may do it very soon, just to give the flat edge (spoke) face a matte finish. I just kinda ran out of time getting them together and on the car. I know it will give them great contrast against the gloss. I am really liking the black though, def not getting mean mugged by the police any more, not as much anyways. Back to daily driver status.

dmyers151 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I'm feeling the new look for sure, I understand the running out of time deal too. Sucks when it comes down to the little things keeping the car from going anywhere. It's hard to believe the 5-0 show less attention now, they are all over my car, all the time. I literally stopped driving it in August last year because I was getting hassled daily. I lost count of how many times I've been pulled over by multiple cars at once and flanked by officers just to be let go with a warning or some arbitrary ticket/excuse.
