Default OEM wheels PCed

I kinda stole this idea from the thread..

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=308273

What do you guys think of this scheme? Sorry about the crappy PS. Its just a quick-n-dirty job.



I have been toying with the idea of powdercoating my OEMs and thought that Mr.Cleans idea was great, just different enough to catch your attention.

Edit- Here is the original pic for comparison purposes.

Doesn't do much for me. Most people wouldn't even notice a difference. Granted, you're doing it for you and not most people...

I have to agree with this. Neat idea, but the color may need some tweaking.

I'm not really sure of my true thoughts on it either. It might be one of those things that you have to see in person to judge acurately.

To the person that asked what kind of paint it was, It's not. Photoshop all the way. Maybe I'll spend some time tweaking it later on tonight.
