Thanks for the compliments guys. If anyone is interested in some gold plasti dip, I have 5 cans left over. I ordered it from Home Depot and they only came in a case of 6. One can did all 4 wheels with a little left over. $9 a can plus shipping?

Got any pics of the red wheels?

Did you just spray one coat of the gold? or did you do a couple of light coats? I also cant tell is the inside of the wheel almost fully black still?

I did several very light coats to keep th paint from running, and I only did the face of the rim, the inside is still flat black.

Yeah, but the photos make it look pink, but it was RED. I got ALOT of positive feedback. Some here thought it looked Ricey, but haters gonna hate. lol

The light colors do not clean well in my opinion.

I like the grilles too.

I'm a big fan of 'to each their own' and just cause some 17 yr old punk likes red or yellow or gold wheels doesn't mean it should be ruined for the rest of us.
