Gunmetal with a polished lip would look good on like a black car IMO but not on DG. I'd rock em stock for a little and save up for some sick wheels.

I was thinking of doing Gun metal with polish lip myself. How much does it usually cost and how long does it take?

There's a place locally in SoCal for me that I just called.
They quoted me $65 a rim and it would take 3-4 days for all 4.
They have over 100 colors to choose from.
Now the hard part is choosing the right grey.
There's too many choices
