Painted Rims Installed on Car

A follow up to my DIY Paint your car Rims article, I promised pics of the rims on my Integra to see how it will look.

Well I had installed them last week as winter has come and some snow has already been seen. Nothing to use my winter tires for yet, but that will come.

I was pretty impressed with how the gunmetal rim with polished style lip looked on my green Integra. I always was going back and forth if I should paint my rims gunmetal, but now I am quite happy with the end result.

Take a look:







Hope my DIY paint your rims article helped, and I hope this will help others picture what the stock SE rims will look like gunmetal with a polished lip and on a green integra like mine.

a 1969 Ford Mustang was taken from a pretty beat up shape to a fantastic blue painted Mustang that is ready to rule the roads! Take a look at that automatic launch at the end of the video. The amazing part I found was the wiring by the steering wheel and how the interior looked before and after. You can see during the video how the body of the Mustang has been sanded and prepped for painting. The light colored grey primer was put on the outside of the car, and then the final top coat of blue makes it shine. Take a look at this beauty:
