Good job!

Looks nice. I've been thinking about getting my sport 16" wheels powder coated. What type of paint did you use for this?

Looks great! Did you paint it with the tires on the rim?

When you copy and paste from photobucket the [IMG] [/IMG] has to be lower case. Either that or just copy and past the direct link (second one from the top in photobucket) into the add image link.

Nice

Thanks to everyone!!

im really happy with how they turned out.

i just used Rust-oleom spray paint, i took the wheels off the car left the tires on. sanded them down taped off the tire with masking tape and for the part of the tire that is touching the rim i put armor-all on it so the paint wont stick to the tire.

it took me 1 day from about 12:00AM to about 6:30PM, they turned out way better than i expected and it only costed me about 15 bucks and i feel like i just put new wheels on my car!

I'm gonna be giving that a shot today. Read a few tutorials online just a few minutes ago. Thinking maybe a gun metal, or a black with a silver lip.

wow looks damn good!

looks real nice, and the car looks good too. my personal opinion would be to lose the eyelids but that is just me, I've only found one Böser hood that I like on b5's and it's a custom one. I've never liked the eyelids.

im not a fan of the eyelids either, but each to his own.  wheels do look great though.

looks good, Ive been thinking about doing mine for a while but I am not sure how the black will look on my car (cactus green)

Started it on mine. Gave my front drivers side rim a shot and really like it. Think I'm going to paint the lip silver, than put a clear coat over it all.

is it just the light or is your tint that nasty foil lookin ****? feelin the wheels though nice job

Love the look of the rims on your car but the eyelids have to go it spoils the look of the car.
 
Well done on the rims remind me of my car.

Great job!
I like how it looks. ;-)

I like gunmetal on cactus green but I think black might not look 100% right

Looks great! Next step: paint your lowers!!!

Very Nice I like!
