I have sen some sigs before about people painting their stock 16" 4th gen rims gunmetal and all kindas of colors.

can you guys tell me what method you used to paint it and what paint? also did you take the tires off the rims?

 

I did that...check the 4th gen How Tos...

 

petertheeater done it too on his 240sx SE rims i believe. check out his homepage for more reference.

 

Yep, good call...mb him and me could swap rims at the next meet lol ive been wondering how my car would look with black wheels.

 

thanks luda, and good write up, im gona do it soon. Im gona go for a slightly lighter gunmetal tho.



do you think i can still do the chrome lip thing if my rim is alittle curebed?

 

Yeah you can do still the chrome lip thing...getting it curbed doesnt affect your ability to scrape the paint/clearcoat off completely.

 

Luda.....don't you dare change your wheels. They are too cool. I think the grey that you used looks really awesome with the black. I want those color wheels, but too much time and trouble. ha ha
