The King Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I have a set of wheels that I would like to get painted a nice gunmetal/graphite. Anybody know of a shop in town that can do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmutt Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thanks, Anyone ever try just a rattle can?I've used spraypaint on the mag portion on a set of wheels, left the bright silver rims and fogged black up the mag then blacked out the hub. Kind of a fade look, but worked well. On a rim? May not be a good approach since they collect more grime/dust/rock chips than the rest of the wheel, but as cheap as it would be to try.....why not?
