    power cloth the rims will cost you about $ 80 to $100 per wheels, if I just go out to buy a set of wheels will cost me $ 150 to whatever you want. I will said go buy a black rims is way much better.

    My rims were getting blemishes from the salt/sand during the winters. I really had nothing to lose. Bored one weekend and decided to paint them. Originally was gonna use Plasti Dip but I found Bed Liner was cheaper and probably a lot more durable. Now that I have them painted, thinking twice now about sinking money into new wheels :D

    Just cleaned and sprayed. Ended up doing 3 coats on the rims. Had blemishes on rims due to the salt/sanding of the roads in the winter time. Sanded the bubbles out, washed and then sprayed

    So how well does the bed liner stuff stick? I'm thinking of doing my step rails which are chrome. Don't want to sand on them if it's not going to stick. I know someone on here did this already. I'm looking for the link.
