I actually thought about doing the red "H"... but was too lazy... How would I do it without it taking a long time? I wish I could just buy a red "H" sticker haha

I've seen it done.. Someone on the forum did it recently, and personally I don't like it.

I did these with duplicolor wheel paint. Took me 5 hours but I got a lot of compliments.

Ok guys, the spray gun I use is a friends of mine and its a peace of SHIT! That bean said, I just messes up one wheel.
Now(the fked up part about painting) I had to wait till its fully dry, then I have to sand the $hit down, then I have to spray it again.
It take ALOT ALOT A.L.O.T od pacience!! I was just about to slam that gun on the floor! POS!!!! I tell you, this CAN really cause you to grow white hairs! I think I just grew five..
