Hey tuners :cool: Below are some pictures of my "new" rims going on my DSM. The first one is one of the rims before I cleaned them up and the second is one that is finished. I wetsanded the hell out of the outside lip and lightly wetsanded the factory silver paint and finished the rim up with some compound. Very time consuming considering each one takes close to 5 hours to finish (2 of them are done) Looks great, but I am not sure if I want to keep them silver or not. Actually I don't think I do, too plain for me. I am leaning toward bronze but I wanted to get the opinion of others to help me decide. What do you think?

Hey Brandon Whats up?! Wheels look really nice good job on refinishing them! Id say Bronze w/ polished lip or Gunmetal with polished lip! Should look great on the car..Just to let you know by the way Zachs post earlier about a Body Kit was NOT posted by him but a kid at school that was goofing around haha. Phew :p
 
I'd say either gunmetal with lip or bronze with lip, if they were mine I'd go with the gunmetal.

Bronze is soooooo SEXY :cool: I would have died to have a nice set of bronze rims for my black eclipse before it got wrecked....I miss my black car :cry:
 
i would go with the Bronze w/ chrome lip or just the Bronze. i thik that the best looking rims are bronze rims
 
Gunmetal is way to common nowadays. I would love to see Bronze with pollished lip. What ever you do keep us updated.

Glad to see you back Brandon. Long time no see.
 
I have those same wheels, I did gunmetal with a semi-gloss black lip... I hate polished lips, so I wanted to get the absolute furthest from polished as I could :) I tried flat black first, but it just looked dirty, I think the semi-gloss works nicley though.
