Tinting stock WS6 wheels?
I have the stock '00 WS6 rims and I went too long without washing my rims so they built a fine layer of brake dust and, as weird as this sounds, I LOVE the color! It looks like someone sprayed one coat of that headlight/taillight tint stuff on them. Since my car is black, it just matches awesome! And I was wondering, how could I mock this color? Since they have that clear coat could I just spray taillight tint on them? Thanks!

I would buy some metallic black or black chrome Duplicolor spray paint and (mask off the tire obviously) hit it with a real light coat, like a fine mist. Repeat until the desired darkness.
Make sure you do the surface prep first though or it will not last and look like poo. Not saying polish them back to stock but make sure the surface is clean and dry. Hit it with some soap and water, then alcohol, then dry it real well. Spray away.
