new pics with my painted wheels.

Over the summer I had hit a pothole and had bent two of my 19's. The bends where in the inside so it caused no real damge. Once I had gotten them fixed I decided I wanted a new look. So I had them painted gunmetal. Here are some quick pics of them.

The fogs light up the road so much better. I went from the stock fogs to no fogs to these. By far this setup is the best. Plus it fills the holes perfectly. Everybody has there own taste.

I'll shoot a couple when it gets dark. I don't know if they will turn out cause I suck at taking night pics but I will try.

It cost me $395 for all four. They sandblasted them then painted and then did a clear powdercoat to seal them.

I actually like the foglights. They are there for a purpose, and suits it well. But I dont like the rims painted. overall, looking good

Yeah the car looks good. Rims match the color of the car, but I think silver would look better though. Well anyone has it's own taste, like you said. BTW I do also like those fogs. Nice pics.

I had a place here in MN called Precision Wheel do them. What they did was sandblast the old finish off then spray the new color and then do a clear powdercoat to seal.

Wow, that looks awesome. I LOVE the foglights and Grey Lustre is one of my favorite colors on a Maxima. The rims turned out really nice!

I was in Burnsville last month! I always stay in Eagan when I come to MN. Hopefully you can make it to the next MN meet cause I'd love to see your car in person.
