SWEET!! im glad everyone likes them, I used the plsti-dip to see what it would look like, ill do the whole wheel on the other side to see how it turns out. Ill throw up some pics of the whole wheel done in a few days!
On a side note, I have to throw a little Smart bit in, we've actually got 3 of them, and we bought one, and really liked it, their made by Mercedes Benz, very solid cars. Liked it so much we picked up a wrecked one with the front suspension tore off and rebuild that one, then the smart dealer in indy called us on one that they had come through with a blown motor, to be grabbed that one too.lol so that’s what were working on in the garage. hmmm, ls1 swap???? haha I'd love to do a busa swap
here are a few clips that are just freakin awsome,lol

I like the white centers and get the feeling the all white wheel wont look as good. Just curious, what size tires are you running? The front tires look too small, there seems to be a large gap between the tire and fender. Car already looks lowered to me in the pics, at least in the rear the gap isnt nearly as large. Something just seems off to me.

smarts are like $20k new.. (ridiculously expensive for a golf-car..) what do they go for with blown engines?
I can imagine maybe commuting in one of those humiliating things with a hyabusa engine.
I mean.. ya know.. if gas doubles or something.. it's either that or I'll walk 62 miles a day..
I'm so tempted to try this plasti-dip stuff. I have black center hub covers on my Fbody's SS wheels.. the previous owner painted them blue and my car is pewter.. so rather than guy new ones I rattle canned them. I'm worried it won't last.

The plsti-dip drys with a satin finish, not that its really noticible with white, but as far as cleaning,I thought about clearing them too.
If you spray it on right, it lays out beautiful. I was thinking about using the black on my valance like 6LE did, with the plsti-dip I can try it to see if it looks ok, and if it does, just peel it off and actually paint it, needs to be re-painted anyways.lol
