Painting Polished iForge Aero's
 
Hi guys,

So i traded my SF-winnings awhile back for some crappy offset iForged Aero's +$$ since needed the extra cash for Spring Break ha..

So i wanted to know if it was possible to spray paint these wheels flat/gloss black whichever black..

but i wanted to know what steps i would take if they're different from spray painting OEM wheels? and what paint would be the best?

send them to a body shop and have them painted. It will be worth the money and will last and look better then spraypaint.

Ya i understand that getting them Powdercoated is the better option, but i dont see the point in paying $400+ on these wheels as they're just temporary wheels

If they are temp then don't ruin the resale valve by you spray painting them.

Ya i've thought about that as well..but they will most likely be my spares..

any suggestions as far as what spray can to use?

Any spray can will work you need to do a good prep tho. Tape off what you don't want painted, then 320 everything you want painted.

A bodyshop is not going to charge you 400 bucks. There paint will hold up better then a spray can.
