it's simple. all you have to do is not wash your rims for 3 weeks.

i had mine painted gunmetal and they looked like shiite. lemme tell you, they look cleaner and nicer brighter. if you paint them without a glossy temperament then your rims will catch engine grease easier. save yourself some thought--i used to think the stock rims were hell sexy, but was uncomfortable that they were a little bit small. i also want my discs to show. get some new rims. they're easier to clean. tongue.gif

Why don't you look into the Rota wheels, they're relatively light weight, not that expensive and have plenty of them in black. They might have some in gunmetal..they offer a dump load of different options. Also, I believe they're made in Philipines, closer to OZ.

Yeah maybe, It's a bit hard to tell from pics.
I going for the stealth look myself with painted rims & lights like java's), tinted widows, tails & fogs.

I think my wheels look GREAT in black or gunmetal. They are nice and light too.
