It looks like they turned out very well. The blue is a little bright for my test, but the work turned out very well. You're giving me ideas. haha.

Did you tape the Nissan logo and the other letters on the main engine cover off when you painted it? I'm assuming that took some time to do.

You should have got the paint to have it match the car a bit more, that blue looks pretty beast though.

turned out really good. My buddy recently bought an s2000 and he did the same with his wheels... turned out good for him too... Good job!

Maybe paint the plenum to match the wheels? that would look sweet with the blue i bet....

Hectik - the paint isn't my style a little too bright I guess. But the quality of the finished product looks smooth. Well done.

You'll be joining him if you make another pointless post like this over here. Take that crap over to GC.
