^ wow fail, those look nothing a like.

Notice the thick, smooth finish apposed to the dull, rough finish.

At least post wheels that were powdercoated flat black if you want to make a terrible claim.

You're right and I shared my opinion, which I am allowed to do, then you said some **** about produce. Would you like a list of features my car has had so you can see how well polished trim and green goes?

Buddy, do you seriously want to start an argument about whose car is more riced out like a Civic? so what, he pastic diped his winter wheels

Last time I checked your profile you had Japanese Asian writing on your windshield, a carbon fiber hood with huge vents, and HP gaining stickers on every body panel of your car...ect

I don't care for plastic dip myself, but the fact that you're calling him a ricer Civic because that's all he did to his wheels makes me laugh

Do it the right way or not at all. You could have prepped these, primed them and painted them for less than $50. But you choose to use plastidip which looks like absolute ****.
I still have the option to paint......

Why even spend the money? It was less than $30. I'd say money well spent.

Haters gon' hate.

Apologize in advance, I dislike. But, I generally dislike black face / painted wheels, regardless if they are OEM or aftermarket.

All right they're powder coated, years from now they'll look exactly the same....that can't be said for plasticdip. P/C is $$ well spent! I started painting the centers of my wheels way back and they looked good for a long time and still believe that's the least expensive way to change color on anything. Doesn't P/D peel off, that can't be a good thing especially on wheels....

well im not saying plasti dip for life or anything.. but i think it looks good.. id do it but i wouldnt want to keep doing it.. i think its a good choice to do while saving up to get them P/C or to even see if you like the look of black rims... like redpearl said.. i think its funny how others blast the hell outta people and there cars are more riced out then they know...(not talkin about you gary)

i say if its not your car why care enough about to put someone down.. and like i said im gonna do my rims in plasti dip to see how they look in black and while i save up some extra cash to have them P/C i called a place in lake elsinore and they quoted me 60 a rim over the phone but im sure it will go down a lil bit when i bring them in to the shop
