    how is the paint on the rims holding up?

    I painted my chrome grill (my old one) with 2 coats primer 2 coats krylon and it was fine until bugs hit it... their guts eat spray paint...

    and i never turn the stove off while i have headlights in their, i leave it on till im done doing what im doing, and ive ripped headlights apart...6 times mebe?

    The rims are holding up well. I was raining it's ass off here in Houston for a bit, I purposly drove through some puddles at a higher rate of speed to just test my paint...Also when down the "muddy" road by my plant and they have held up well.

    As far as a grille, Maybe I should trade somebody for a black grille.

    Keep us posted on how those wheels are holding up. Just got my 265 BFG AT's put on now I need the black wheels. Trying to decide if I sould try to sell mine to get what I want or to paint them like you did.

    It's actually doing better than I thought. I only have a few scratches from taking my tires off for my 5100's, And from the nasty ass beach mud. But after our offroad trip im gonna touch them up.

    I'd love to do that.

    Your rims look great! I have the same ones and want to paint them. Member, Canada, has a real nice write up about painting his chrome rear bumper. I think I might follow his lead on that. Nice looking ride...
