    1 wheel together.. bolts painted black!! pics

    Okay.. so I have 1 wheel completely together now.. (still need tires mind you!!) but 3 more to go and I can mount them up and put them on my car.

    I ended up painting all the bolts that hold the wheels together..
    went from bolts chrome:

    to bolts black!!:


    wheel assembled with black bolts!:




    now just 3 more wheels to assemble!! and ordering tires this week.
    SOON they will be on my car.. SOON!!

    nope.. the paint on the bolts didnt rub off!!.. I was surprised too!!
    I used a special paint for painting aluminium and steel wheels.. so I figured it would be good for the bolts.
    its by Dupli-colour: high performance wheel coating.
