No thanks. Maybe with a polished lip, but not like that.

Looks great.

I can't wait to do this to my winter set of OEM wheels....which are beat to hell anyway and need a refinishing....summer set is on the car now.

Any tips on the sanding/finishing process to make them look that good????
just take your time, and make sure u sand everything off before you start to spay the paint on it...it takes about 2-3 hours to sand it off ...it should take anoher hour to spary the paint on...be patient and youll be happy with the finished product,,,and ull save about $120 hahah good luck bro

That's a whole lot of black. Not bad, but I think I might have gone with something different. Black wheels inside of black tires just doesn't do it for me.

I'd actually like to see the exact opposite of your car. All white with OEM lip, wing, (white) wheels, and hardtop. And I like the look of the `00 - `03 five spoke wheels better than either of the newer ones, just wish they where 17" as well.

I like! mine are also painted black but with the center cap also painted!
looks great man... i just got mine done too... except i powdercoated mine...it looks real aggressive with Berlina...

im stuck on what do do with the center caps... when i put my silver ones on, it looked too big on the wheel... but on your picture, it looks fine...

i was gonna paint them black and somehow do a silver "H".. i dont know... cant decide...
