Cool. I've wanted to update the look of my wheels, but I just couldn't justify replacing a set of nice looking forged 19" rims. I was thinking about doing what you did, but with a dark, gun metal finish on the spokes. Now that I've seen another G owner paint the stockers with some success I may look into it.

By the way, I thought about doing the same thing, but bronze or gold because I thought black without a big lip might not look that nice. But damn yours came out hot! Way better than what I expected. Please post more pics

I'll take pics when I get mine done. I am getting stock 17's this week to roll around on while I'm doing the wheels and the front grill black! But I am doing the whole rime black, no lip! And that goes for comments also!
