http://www.DSMtalk.com/gallery/data/...17-07_1956.jpg Painted the stockers that came on it black in the center. I think it looks quite good. Excuse me for ths shitty cell pics...I'll get some decent ones soon. I'm looking for another one of those lug nut covers for those wheels. I have 3, but the 4th broke. Here's before: http://www.DSMtalk.com/gallery/data/...m/DCP01973.JPG |

Fix your headlights.

Re: Painted meh wheels, opinions?
What kind of paint did you use?
|
Re: Painted meh wheels, opinions?
CSK Steering wheel for the loss, is that a Tach on the dash?
Lastly, you need lower profile tires, or bigger rims. it just doesnt look right. |

No E-brake handle? SW Tach?(Bah, Who am I to talk. Just wait until I get my car up on here. It's all ratted out.) At least he has all of the Pedals including the Dead pedal! I like the assortment of speakers as well. Tweets up top on door panels must sound nice.
Good job on the paint though.. Next mod = Chain Steering Wheel. JK, what's the next mod you're doing to it? |
Re: Painted meh wheels, opinions?
Don't bash too hard guys. Remember your 2nd car? I'm still in high school, making 6.25 an hour at Target.
I bought it mostly how it is. Wheel, gauges, all. I'm slowly fixing it up, on an extremely tight budget. The biggest issue is out of the way, which is a low compression, abused motor. Jake rebuilt my whole motor, so I won't have to concentrate too much on that area. Next up on the list are leather seats and matching door panels, new tires, fix the exhaust, hand brake, and a lot of other shit. The hood's going to get replaced with a new oem style CF hood. I just gotta get out of high school and work full time, then there'll be more progress. P.S. If anyone wants to help out the project, donate by taking a peak at the amps I have for sale.....:P EDIT: I like the sleepy eyes....sue me. :) |

Granted, I worked while I was in highschool to make some bank that has definitely helped fund my car. My advice for you is to A)sell your car for $2000 now and save yourself from losing a ton of money over the next few years, or B) get a new job that doesn't pay shitty. |

Not bashing at all just to let you know. Still what paint did you use? I want to know because I am going to turn my wheels black as well. |
Re: Painted meh wheels, opinions?
I just used regular old spray paint from Fleet Farm. Semi gloss black.
I plan to work full time this summer at Target, so we'll see how the money is then. Should be enough to satisfy my needs. Mr98GSX: Some of us aren't as lucky as you to only work 14 hours a week and be able to support yourself. Every two weeks I'm doin roughly 40-43 hours. |
Re: Painted meh wheels, opinions?
it's a start, and be ready for your drivetrain to blow up (if its awd and u race the bitch).
