Rims painted!

Well it only took me 4 weeks to get my rims back, but I have to admit that I love my car even more now

Well, the salesman lost the paint code. So instead of calling me back, they just sent the rims back. Then it took a week for them to paint it. And I wanted to make sure that they were 100% dry before I mounted them up.

Ended up getting a $200 discount so it cost me $402

they are WHEELS and they look very good painted white on the white car but I agree, if you have the stock pads, brake dust is not your friend. Well I am not sure on an LT but the dust on an SS is miserable!

powdercoating would hold up better and is about the same cost but you cant really repair it. If you do damage it, you cant just fix the spot like you can on paint.

Very nice. I've always loved white rims on a white car. The 30th Ann. Camaro is one of my favorites.
