It looks good... you should have taped off the inner lip before spraying. Either way... :thumb:
 
Niceness. I did mine with a polished lip awhile back. But yours looks all glossified and shiny. What kinda paint did you use? :confused:
 
Well it was 3 coats primer, then I used duplicolor engine enamal with ceramic(good for temps up to 500 degrees) Anyways all duplicolor, even the clear coat
 
I agree with the gloss black coat, looks alot better. are you going to paint the middle mitsu emblem red? I was thinkin of doing that because my calipers are red.

Yeah I was going to after the paint fully cures. I think it says 3 days to fully harden. I am going to do my calipers red next also
 
Good work on doing the rims, although I never liked black rims. Maybe with a polished lip it would look better but black rims look too much like steelies imo.
 
Yeah right now they kind of remind me of spare rims. I'll get it hooked up later when I get em powdercoated(Thats like last on my list of things to do, but hey at least they're on my list)

Don't like the bronze color though
 
Looks a little to much like a steel hubcap IMO. Nice job on the painting though,,maybe try to polish the lip?
