I really like how the accord rims came out. They really look like sweet ass aftermarket rims. Good job!

I was thinking of painting my Mazdaspeed3 rims.. they look fugly in silver

It's a very easy thing to do its obviously not as good as getting them powder coated but if you spent the proper amount of time on them they will turn out good.

it doesn't look much like you painted the second ones.

you should sell them both and get a new set of fast or rotas

fast rims are cheap garbage and my girlfreind doesn't need rota's nor do i as winter rims. these are just something i did for fun. Also the second set went from silver to bronze/gunmetal so i dont see how you figure they are the same, Thanks.
