i know, but i'm so anal when it comes to this crap. took me like half an hour per wheel just cleaning them. i cleaned them with brillo pads, two coats primer, two coats color, two coats clear. might throw a few more coats of clear on there one day, but prob not...

primer: $2.97
paint: $7.00
clear: $7.00

it looks 10x better in person. when the sun hits it, its super metallic. i used this.....can be bought at pep boys and i'm sure like 50 other places. its about $7 per can...obviously mine was the graphite color. haha i know a bunch of people with red wheels, i'm not a fan of it.
