I have a black 04' and i was gonna see about getting a dark bronze coloe for the wheels but nobody has it so i think im gonna go black. Im just curious to see what the lugs are gonna look like. being on black wheels

You can just scuff the surface with steel wool or light sandpaper.

Yeah so just regular sand paper? i really want to do this but scared of fucking it up and then having to paint the whole rim black which i really dont want to do but yeah. but you said you really dont need any experiance with spray paint to do this right?

yep take ur time, mine came out ok. too bad the other guy went black instead of bronze. Either way it a temp. fix im upgrading to 18x8 hopefully this weekend...

but here are mine in my sig:::

Does anyone have a pic of our rims painted all black with just a silver "lip" left? I see everyone paints the spokes and leaves the "lip" and the wheel in between the spokes silver. Just curious to see what it looks like as I will be painting my wheels soon!
