Painted my wheel wells I finally got around to doing the rear wheel wells. I had previously removed, cleaned, and spray coated the front wheel well liners with a black rubberized coating.
For the rear I just throughly washed the wells, and later painted them flat black via a paint brush. Had originally considered spraying the rear wells with the same black rubberized coating, but didn't feel like masking everything for the over-spray.

Wow I really like how that looks. What products did you use? It definitely looks much nicer. Do you have any pics of the whole car, or maybe further back?

Just a small can of flat black Rustoleum and a cheap-*** paint brush. 
Decided against the spray on rubberized stuff cause I didn't want to mask off everything and make a huge mess.

Looks real good. If I didn't know how old these cars were, I'd swear it was brand new after seeing those pics. Great job. I may have to do that this week if they tell me there's no work to do this week and honestly it's like what you said, some of the smaller, cheaper projects hold more to a person than some of the more expensive ones.
