I think it looks sweet, especially if you paint your calipers or have a BBK.

And the guy named Nick with the nogaro with black stocks has pretty much what i wish my car was (+full stg 3) soooo nice. God damn why did i buy a black car.

Those ones also look dull, they would look better with a smoother shine.

yeah i painted my rims before i got my bbs ones.. Make sure you sand everything real nice, get all curb rash off if you have any. I used an ALL purpose Rust o leum black spray, just becuase my dad is a contractor and he tested that its the strongest and most durable paint.. then after about like 5 coats i put like 3 coats of clear coat on... ill post some pictures when im on my other computer

Yeah, I couldn't decide whether or not I wanted a flat black or high gloss. I ended up testing out the flat black and was just too lazy to go back and put a clear coat on them.

It took me about 3 days to do this. Seeing as I only did just over 1 wheel per day. I would take off the wheel, clean it very well. Sand it, prime it, sand it, paint it, wet sand it, paint it again....
