I want to repaint my stockies, and I kinda liked this idea.
the color theme of my car is black and blue, so it works out.
the only thing I would change is use a much deeper blue and do something with the centercaps

 

looks good.

 

haha, thanks.

anyone have any experience painting lug nuts?

 

yea i feel you on the deeper blue part think il lok good with the black....i would paint the center cap black also...i actually did my spokes only flat black then did some clear coating .....is the car lowrered at all

 

The reflection in the paint of the bench almost makes the car look as if it has gills.

Anywho, I love the color.

 

 

yes, i have it dropped pretty low (about 2") all around on goldlines
the picture doesnt do it justice from the high angle.
the very tips of the wheels are tucked under the lip

 

eh im on the border with that...iono something about it isnt working for me

 

i respect that. when I first saw it, I didnt give it a second thought. but then I didn't want to paint everything black, so i figured if I go really deap blue it will a little bit mroe subtle

 

maybe the blue does need to be a tad darker..I wondered how those stockies would look with a somewhat rainbow color and paint slatted face plate...haha nvm you need a drop. That is what is bothering me

 

that first picture isnt mine. the second one is. it isdropped.

quite a bit actually

 

i think it looks good, although i would have to agree that you may want to go a bit darker. blue anodize lugz would also be nice.

 

yup. just got back from home depot. got a pretty dark navy blue.

and i thought the same thing about the lugs, that's why I asked if anyone had any experience with them. the only thought I have: wouldn't they get all scraped and scuffed up when you put them on and off

 

anyone else have any tips for the lugs??

 

dude honestly im back and forth with it as well....

 

poooooops. well if anything, I can just redo it.

 

i go back and forth with things on my car.......sometimes i get bored lookin att he same color all the time and get some new ideas or wanna try something different...i have to get some pics of my car so you can tell me what you think been raining here for awhile wanna get the car nice and clean beforei post pics..

 

haha. alright.

how do you feel about the idea?


just trying to get as many opinions as possible

 

do it...if you dont like it paint it again

 

will do. I'll let ya guys know how it goes. thanks for the opinions
