Thoughts? My car how I bought it

Post by erniel05 »

I've been thinking of going back to this look, but I am unsure. The wheels were plastidipped and the pinstripe was cracked and peeling, which is why I removed them.

I like the wheels, especially if you got the windows tinted. The stripe can stay gone, IMO.

Paint the wheels gloss black or have them powdercoated, that's the way to go!

I really liked the wheels and I also think powdercoating is the way to go. I guess I can do without the pinstripe, it is a little weird.

Wheels look fine, but I agree with the others on the pinstripe.
