They're my friends from last year. $300 for the set.

Normally I can get em for $125 each.

Nope, powder coating Evo wheels is a BAD idea... weakens them dramatically.

Dupli-color Wheel paint. Satin black. $4 a can.

Did it all myself.

Had a local graphics shop make up the logos for me.

Here's how mine turned out. I did them once before with more of the lip showing. I had a couple spots that chipped so I redid them last week with a thinner lip. I like them better this way.


But as you can see they really need new Enkei decals! Yours look much better I think with the decals on them. Very nice work!

Haha, that's the way to do it. That's exactly what I did. My buddy sold me is Dunlop Winter Sport M3s that he used for one winter.
