Painted the wheels, with the help of a buddy's paint gun and booth....used grey primer, "Charcoal Dust" base, but it turned out like pastel grey, so I overlaid black lacquer and clear over the top of it....like a gunmetal bluish thing going on - strange.

wheels look great jim, and the decal looks good too!

Looks good, when you going to fab your own exhaust for it?

Jim Lewis · 06-07-2007, 06:31 PM

Already did! 3" from the cat back, using a Moroso spiral flow muffler and a 4" section for a tip (painted black).

I'm going to get a BUNCH of smaller versions made up to sell (cheaply) at the car show(s). They'll probably be only 8-10" long by 1/2" and sell for a dollar or less.

I'll use white, silver, and the same graphite color that's on my car.

Not being funny, just respecting a very nice weapon system, one I used while on active duty.

Very nice car, that wheel color is awesome too, nice job painting them.

Jim Lewis · 07-01-2007, 10:27 PM

Thanks...found out that it comes off easily, though...got an alignment under warranty at Welsh Subaru, and knowing the guys there, I know they were gentle, but it took off the color in a couple of places. Easy enough to touch up.
