its a spray on rubberized coating that leaves a matte finish. no sanding, no priming, no clear coat. once it's dry you can peel it clean off, doesnt affect clear coat

yeah man this stuff is really awesome! its like 6 bucks a can at home depot or lowes or pretty much any other hardware store.. the best thing about it is that there's no sanding, priming and if you screw up or dont like it, you just wait a day and peel it right off, no damage to clearcoat or anything...

Grill yes Wheels not so much. Ive always had a problem with these wheels, even mounted on an SL, they give me an itch I cant scratch however I do prefer them in silver.
Good work tho...

my .02. like the grill but not so much on the wheels but like u said, it's all about what makes u happy. in addition to the gloss black perhaps polished lips or maybe just brushed lips?

if u can peel it off...give it a try if u ever get the time/energy.

thx for the comment. yeah, its my ride and thats my style. i hate gloss black wheels, but i especially hate gloss black wheels with chrome lips. lol. but hey im not hatin if thats ur look.



"hate the wheels, hate the color, good job painting" if its not ur style, then so be it, i really dont give a ****, but im glad u took the time out to tell me how much u dont like it, tells me u take the time out to do such things.. lol. AHEM* hater lol. haters just keep me goin.



and as always thanks for the comments
lol. omg. You should stop taking things so personal; I'm not hating just stating opinion and I was being nice about it.....honestly I can't believe you took the time to successfully make a german exotic look like a cheap japanese tuner with that ****. Seriously, these "modifications" you have done are what a teenager would do to their cavalier; next I wouldn't be surprised to see a thread with "custom painted" interior panels. lol.

Actually I do have gloss black wheels with polished aluminum lips so I know it looks good and looks professional. On the contrary; I didn't take the time to hate on your taste...actually that was the hardest I had laughed all day so I figured a few words was the least I could do for the favor

Dang bro you needs to chill. You say you don't care about other people's opinions so just ignore them. This is a forum and you have to expect comments and criticism.

Nothing wrong with a "black series" with gloss wheels......

781m - did you delete your last post or did the moderators do that...

Taking the **** out of anyone who calls their car a black series when it isnt. I own the real thing and hate posers who pretend to have one.
