My new stock 19" rays paint design!

MyKindaGuise · 07-23-2012, 09:10 PM

Thanks for all of the replies guys. I know how specific the Z community is so I planned on getting some mixed thoughts from other members. But I am very specific when it comes to my car and I wanted something different. I loved how the stock wheels locked when plastidipped/powder coated/painted black. I just wanted something a little more unique, which by the comments it looks like I have achieved.

Also gy954 we used duplicolor satin black wheel paint. It will last.

I really like it, man!

HArturo319 · 07-23-2012, 09:42 PM

meh. The rays alone are sick enough

Cmike2780 · 07-23-2012, 10:35 PM

Nice! I was expecting the worst, but that's not bad.

Interesting, but I think it makes your rim look smaller than it actually is.

10splaya22 · 07-24-2012, 01:55 AM

I'm not a fan at all, looks cheap and hides the original wheel design (which I like). If you did the reverse, like the pic above, it would look better

CrownR426 · 07-24-2012, 02:20 AM

You just made nice rims into rice rims..

zuperman 370 · 07-24-2012, 07:08 AM

man thats pretty sick, great idea love the look very creative, im sure we will start seeing more and more ppl copying that design now on the forum lool way to go to be the first to do it, would love to see videos or pics of the car rolling bet you the look like blades

cheshirecat · 07-24-2012, 07:11 AM

while it's not my cup of tea, well done on being creative and different.

i think the reverse setup is actually pretty cool looking.

Horrible. I appreciate creativity, I guess.

babbagandu · 07-24-2012, 09:32 AM

I also think it looks a little ricey. Sorry OP.

chknhawk · 07-24-2012, 09:44 AM

Too rice and looks bad to me, srry

ShinyBlueZ · 07-24-2012, 10:15 AM

I really love the stock sport rims.. I've been looking at aftermarket rims and none really make me go "wow those would make my car look a lot better."

not being critical but (especially from an angle) that design reminds me a little bit of those fake 'rim' hubcaps/spinners that you can get and stick on your car lol

although.. it does make your car look like it has spinners and maybe that's a look you're going for hehe I think I would just have the entire rim that gunmetal colour.. but either way your sport rims are definitely different than all the other sport rims now

hope that's plasti-dip.
