  • Paint my wheels or no?

    Well modding on a college budget sucks, and everyone here at school keeps tellin me how bad i need a new set of wheels, and we ended up talking about possibly painting mine.

    I did a quick photoshop just to see, and i dont think it looks bad... I just want some more input before I make a decision.

    Edit: I should also add that I have black turn signals and the whistler mod, so nothing really shiney on the car.

    I would be willing to get rid of my stock grill. I don't know if I want to give it away though. Let me find out what shipping is and we can try to work something out. :banana:

        Well I think the photoshop looks pretty nice, they are still stock wheels but it makes the car look nicer than the before picture.

        I say go for it :tup:

          and, Leave it grill-less, I have always liked the look of no grill, the only bad thing about it is the holes but who cares.


          Your car looks pretty bad *** the way it is. + the wheels.

              they might look good from a distance, but when you even get close at all they look really crappy, dont do it.

              i painted my wheels a long time ago and this is what they looked like

                Yea but im talkin about leaving some of it silver, only painting the spoke part of the wheel, so i think that may make a difference. Someone on this board painted theirs like how i want but i cant remember who

                  I agree, if you paint them....dont do the entire wheel, leave some silver. The photoshop looks good........

                          I like the first style, gre8scholsky painted his salad shooters black, and left the lip silver...but that guy is crazy talented w/ spray paint
