Very nice. Now I know what mine will look like in about 3months. Going to turbo 1st then paint. Put a sticker on the back that says "Hunting Ricers" or something in that nature.

how wide are those wheels? i like the wat the "swastica" wheels looks on coupes.

They look pretty deep, or is it just the angle of the picture?

"hunting rices" haha lol!

ehh they arnt wide at al their 15x6-10 i think its the offset that makes them look likethat, their alright i want wider but cant aford anything, but their really light so thats kind of a plus.

i took them off and sanded them and then came back over with a base coat of flat black, but when i did the colors i had them on the car.

when you spray it, paint gets in there to be honest, it surprised me, but it's easier then you'd think

[nudelude]

kickass paint job man.... if you don't mind me asking ( cuz im taking on a similar project) , what grit sandpaper did you use to sand it and did you use a primer? did you just tape everything up and then go to town with the flat black base coat? thanks..

[MainEvent212]

use 400 grit before primer, then lightly sand w/ 4 or 600 grit after a light mist of primer...this will give you a good indication of how straight your body panels are and let you know if you need body work. Then prime it up real nice (not really necessary unless you're painting bare metal but it's always good to do IMO)

then paint the ***** up
