Platinum Graphite on White

Took some time over the weekend and decided to plasti-dip my wheels white just to see if I'd like it or not.

Don't like. Black would have been better. Personally, I'm planning on getting the SP wheels and getting them powdercoated gun metal.

I didn't think it looked too bad when I tried a friend's wheel on my old car.

yeah everyone has their own taste so not gonna expect everyone to like it. personally, i've always loved white rims so thought i'd give it a try on this car too. and honestly i like the way it turned out so i'm probably gonna keep it this way. black and gunmetal are done on every car almost. wanted to stand out a bit more i'll take some better pics when i get the chance
