Those are the stock wheels ? I am going to be having my stock rims painted soon, they are going to look like this below. They are a bit more glossy than those above. Those stock lights look horrible on that all black car IMO, JDM VIIs are screaming your name

Sleet, do you know how many coats of paint and clear are needed for that look that you're going for? And what would it cost? BTW, I think it will look absolutely gorgeous on your black evo. Can't wait to see the results.

Nice, will you be considering the new black U.K. badge as well? Obviously it will be hard to tell that it is there, but I think it would be pretty unique on a black evo, and it would fit your look of all black.

I was planing on doing that to mine. Very sick. How did you paint the emblem did you sand or just paint it and clear or just paint. Also what paint did you use on the emblem. Thanks.

Hmm..i'm not too sure how that would look, although I have thought about it. Can you take some more pictures from farther away so I can get a better idea of what it looks like?

i like the look of the black wheels on a tarmac without gloss, but like said above def. need some new tails and it would look sick. The glossy black on that rally red EVo looks sweet too. ^^^ i think if you put black emblems on with the black UK badge it would look good

Love the finish! The diamond logo would look really good in red.
