actually, they don't look half bad I saw someone on here had talked about the idea, so I spent $10 on some paint, and yay, new look. I used the krylon fusion satin black.

I hate to say it but that looks kind of cool.

LOL. Its just something cheap until I can afford some 18's for the wife (its her car). She likes it, so at least I dont have to repaint them silver, haha.

oni424

did you have any issues with bubbles or runs? I used fusion on my grill and it came out ok.

SRT4Erik

no, no issues. Just prep the surface area first and paint in light coats ;)

I painted mine a year ago. Still lookin good and I still get compliments.

oni424

prep the surface? I ran a 400 grit sand paper over the grill and did light coats with time in between but still didnt get an even finnish. how did you prep them?

I thought I'd play around with it in photoshop - trying to highlight and create depth.

SRT4Erik

clean with light soap and water, dry with low lint cloth, very light scuff with steel wool, re-wipe, paint. Tack cloth work best if you have some for cleanup.

Paint light coats and give about 10 minutes between coats. Use good ventilation and make sure its not too hot or too cold.

that looks pretty cool, albeit a lot of masking for hubcaps ;)

Looking good still dude
