Default 2000 A4 Stock Rims painted black

I used Plastidip to paint the rims and i think it came out pretty well
The nice thing about plastidip is its pretty durable but can easily be removed without sanding, thinking about painting the side mirrors black, thoughts?

Looks good. Have you considered painting the center caps also? Ha anyone done wheels and center caps in black?

I really like the idea, but how easy is it to clean them now?

Easy enough, plastidip is actually fairly strong, i know people who have plastidipped their badges and even power washing doesnt rip off the paint, i usualy just spray them with car soap and water and they look good

Since this old thread is already back up, I think it looks great!

But reminds me a lot of a Crown Vic Police Interceptor.

I drive an 01 silver a4, and did the center cap and then my buddy cut out the silver audi emblem with an exacto-knife. This is some extremely durable stuff, before my audi I drove an srt4 and alot of the fellow drives did the "evo mod" to the front cross hairs and it will last for about a yr before the rocks start getting to it. I have even taken it through the car wash with them done, and pressure washed them and its still holding strong.
