19" Stock Rays wheels powdercoat project

Now for the good stuff! I don't have the center caps painted yet, but within a few days...... will post more as I get things finished up.
I just got these mounted tonight, ran them home, bolted them up, got the car off of the jack stands and ran it into the sunset. As I drove out of town, I finally got away from the shadows and buildings and found a dirt road that was still getting direct sunlight. Unfortunately, this was all I had to work with:





Notice the red dot on the fender....It was the sun as it was setting behind the hills. LOL.




In the dark, the color is a little more red-orange



Even more unfortunately, On my way home I came upon an accident where a soccer mom in an Escalade T-Boned a motorcyclist at speed. Poor guy had one leg hanging buy a few pieces of tissue, totally folded up under his body. I took my shirt off and used it as a tourniquet to control arterial bleeding while we waited for the paramedics. I parked my car diagonally in the road to create a safe zone for people at the edge of the street helping this guy. When the police came they thought my car was involved in the wreck, too. I'll see if I can find an x-ray of this disaster tomorrow at work.
Totally ruined my perfect day with my new wheels on the Z. :-(

sucks about the accident, but good thing you were there to help. Wheels look great! Nice to see the final product, as I was going to do something really similar had I not bought the nismo wheels.
