I have seen guy in the hotrod scene use a paint roller. Take rustolium and thin it down with mineral spirits till the bubbles pop on their own. Roll and let dry. It looks good for a couple years but for a less than $50 paint job it looks pretty good.

Okay so I drove around with these on one side for a few hours... I've never had more people stare/laugh/smile/point etc. at my car lol.. I was a little bit embarrassed. Anyway.. Here is the pic you requested lol

This is what a 370z with pink wheels looks like..

It's really difficult to take a good picture of this color for some reason.. Looks really washed out in this picture.

would look better if you lay leaves and branches over the rims, then used yellow paint to make a pink/yellow camo theme.

It is not that bad in my opinion, not something I would do personally but props for putting your cajones on the line.

lol Thanks. I'd probably get shot if I showed up to the track with these. My city is full of import haters..and pink wheels would just push them over the line. I'm hoping the black turns out good. There were a lot of rough areas in the tight spots of the wheels so I'll need to sand them down before the next color

Now is the time to take it to the track. Make sure you talk with a Long Lisp too.
See how many lose to the guy with pink wheels.

BTW,
You are certified crazy and must have a Ball bra to carry those around.

This wouldn't have happen if you had your wheels delivered on time...

This could have been avoided!!
