Bronze OEM 17's

I love the look of gold rims on black...but sadly...as a student...kinda hard to afford rims...but for the time being im thinking of painting my stock 17's bronze...i was wondering if anyone could photoshop them bronze...and maybe a drop...thanks ahead of time

A little darker would be better. Vodkarocket painted his OEM 17's gloss black...I liked the look so I bought them

On black, a darker bronze would look really nice IMO. DO IT!

If you can match the bronze that Volk offers, it would look nicer. Its definitely darker then your photoshop pic.

The last pic looks the best. It's going to look real good. Just take your time spraying them.

Maybe go to a paint store (Sherman Williams) and see if they can mix a couple of spray cans for you.
