ok soo if i can get the pics up i will show a before and after. i took a step by step thing so i could share with the people how to do it. but im to lazzy to post them all.. they came out WAY better then they look in the pic but here is an idea. i took my Scratched to hell Stock OZ- rims. Sanded down and airbrushed them gunmetal ( 1 quart gunmetal mix from bodyshop ) and about 7 hours or painting.

Enjoy and let me know what u think.. ill have a fulll car pic up soon. it has held up for little more then a week now and not a chip or anything.

 

on stands

 

pic 2. no wheels

 

pic 3 Before ( masked ) hardest part lol

 

Pic 4. after 7 hours or Airbrushing and drying and sanding.... ahhhh looks way better in real life

 

whoa.. good job man! it came out really good. did u have to mask off the tire or not at all?

 

looks nice!

 

sorry for that unncessary question.. i was replying to the thread before all ur pics were up.. hehe mah fault

 

just the top as u can see. i did most of it in my shop/garage so i could get a clean shot at just the rim with a little tape around the outside for safty

 

Can we see pix with them on the car?

 

u paint entire wheel or just vis area? u clear coat it and mid coat it? wet sand and color sand?

 

also how much paint run you what shop you get paint from?

 

50grit Sanpaper. ( only Scratched and curbed parts ) didnt sand them down all the way cause i didnt wanna have to sand down and even out the whole rim. and only painted the Vis area what u see in the pic.

was more work then it looks but god it was worth it. i plan on getting a sEt of Stock OZ-wheels and doing white so i can Switch off and on colors. if any of u want me to do it for u just supply money for paint $30 depending on color and ill do the rest.

ill have whole car pic soon as i get one taken.

PeAcE

 

O Yeah and this is how much fun i had Letting the paint dry before clear coat.... ( I WAS BORED AS HELL )

 

sell u my stock oz rims
