Default Plasti-dipped the rims

Fiance wanted black rims for her car so i figured i would try and plasti-dip instead of buying rims first. I really like the look. Im going to get black lugs, black 5.0 emblems and paint the calipers some other color than stock. Pretty pleased with the outcome though. She is more pleased with this than the supercharger...





All i have is my cell phone so sorry about the blurry pics.

Its what she wanted. I liked the stock rims, but this was one of the deals of me putting a supercharger on her car. I have another set of stock rims at the house with drag radials and skinnies for when i want to drive it.

Good call........ I dont understand why people think black looks good on white, its just overdone to me and kinda looks dirty....

If she likes darker colors you should convince her DSG or like a goldish grey, I think that looks bad ass on white.

I just recieved an email back from plasti-dip. They do not have dark shadow gray yet, but becasue of the recent high demand for it, they will have it in spray cans within the next month available in order form only from them. It will be changed when that is released.

They are going to make a DSG huh....? I wonder if it would be too much on my truck? My buddy just got a white 3.35i that needs its wheels done. The DSG would be sick.
