Very nice. Did you paint them? If so where did you get the paint. I found a source that actually bottles OEM colors in a spray can and I bought a 12oz can to repaint a hood scoop and other stuff but at $20 a can it would get more expensive to paint 4 wheels.

I had them professionally painted/baked when the wheels got refinished at Wheels America.

Even at $80 for 4 cans it's considerably cheaper than having someone paint them for you (more than a 3/4 cheaper). I've had success spray painting friends wheels with no issues, just be sure to prep the wheels correctly.
