should i paint my stock rims black

Brunes · 03-22-2009, 04:23 PM

Do you want black rims?? Do you want to do it cheaply?? Then GO FOR IT!!

It's your rig bro- You've got other options (like powdercoat or buy black rims)- So you gotta figure out what fits your budget and what not...

WHATEVER YOU DO- We want pics!!

rmb_crew · 03-22-2009, 05:10 PM

DO IT!!! its really easy man. And it only cost like $20 to do it all.

UCKYUK · 03-22-2009, 05:31 PM
