So I started with these this morning

Well i have a GG evo mr and i bought set of used Rota P45R in a bronze color for a very good deal and i mean really cheap. I know the bronze wouldnt work on GG so i tried to paint them black today and i messed them up so let me show u what i ended up with and tell me what u think i should do with them now that they look like this?

BEFORE


AFTER






100% polsihed Rota P45R

Should i paint the spokes black and leave lip polished. Should i just paint the rough surface between the spokes black and leave the rest all polished? should i powder coat the wheels GG and leave the lip polished. Any ideas let me know

painted face with a chrome lip is old style...notice all the hot wheels coming from japan nowadays come in one solid color...
depending on what you want and how crazy or creative you wanna be...i would say paint them a different shade of graphite gray...a little darker perhaps..

goodluck
