new pics with my painted wheels.

Over the summer I had hit a pothole and had bent two of my 19's. The bends where in the inside so it caused no real damge. Once I had gotten them fixed I decided I wanted a new look. So I had them painted gunmetal. Here are some quick pics of them.

The fogs light up the road so much better. I went from the stock fogs to no fogs to these. By far this setup is the best. Plus it fills the holes perfectly. Everybody has there own taste.

It cost me $395 for all four. They sandblasted them then painted and then did a clear powdercoat to seal them.

I actually like the foglights. They are there for a purpose, and suits it well. But I dont like the rims painted. overall, looking good

Yeah the car looks good. Rims match the color of the car, but I think silver would look better though. Well anyone has it's own taste, like you said. BTW I do also like those fogs. Nice pics.

I had a place here in MN called Precision Wheel do them. What they did was sandblast the old finish off then spray the new color and then do a clear powdercoat to seal.

Wow, that looks awesome. I LOVE the foglights and Grey Lustre is one of my favorite colors on a Maxima. The rims turned out really nice!

I was in Burnsville last month! I always stay in Eagan when I come to MN. Hopefully you can make it to the next MN meet cause I'd love to see your car in person.
