Thanks guys! These will probably become my winter wheels at some point so I'm not gonna spend money to powdercoat them. It will cost like $20-30 and a couple hours of work to redo them completely so it's not worth getting them powdercoated.

Thanks Ryan! I love how the color goes perfectly with the blacked out fangs. I didn't plan for it like that, but it worked out really well.
I'm thinking about maybe doing the door handles as well. It would look good, but I don't think I would like feeling the rough texture of plasti dip when I open my doors. I like it to feel smooth so I will probably leave them. Might do the emblems though in the same gunmetal color. |

I think doin the emblems would look good. Door handles too but I hear what you are saying about the texture. Just looked at your pics again inside, was in the sun before and had mega glare. Rims look damn good +1. Blank rep from my Droid.

I'm thinking about putting a regular clear coat on top of the plasti dip on the wheels to give it a smooth texture. It will be more difficult to remove, but I don't plan on removing it anytime soon. It will also be easier to clean with a smooth surface.

Great job on the wheels ! Looks killer. Did you do them on the car, or take them off ? I am guessing off since it looks like you got all of the inside wheel parts done as well ...

Yeah I took them off the car. I thought about doing it with the wheels on the car, but it would have been much more of a PITA to mask off the brakes/rotors with the wheels still on.
