If he says no to this I have the same rims sitting around in my garage. All they just need is to be washed.

Haha. You guys missed my post above. I wanted a set of 6spoke rs wheels and had the wrx ones. I got sick of waiting, so I sanded (8 hours) and painted my wrx wheels. Now they are on the car. For anyone who's interested I used a single stage Nason paint its a dark gray metallic with gold tones in it.

Carquest Paint Shop. I'm fortunate enough to have a close friend with a Body Shop. My summer wheels are done with GSXR Sonic Blue.

I didn't get pics of the primer, but here's the sealer (Black)
First Coat of Paint (Wet)
Second Coat (Wet) - Blurry, that's all overspray still in the air,
Third Coat, (Wet) - Way less overspray
Dried Finally
And a pic of our Rav, we did the 18's on that in a Base/Clear Dark Dark Grey. We painted the whole car and did the centercaps to match at the same time:

Are you using a spray gun, or just rattle-canning these? They look fantastic!
