Painted GTi Rims


Recommended Posts

Hey, I know its not a z... Still thought you guys would like this (maybe?)

 

Whilst I'm waiting for the tein Coilovers to show up, I decided to go ahead and paint the mk4 gti vr6's rims black.

They turned out really nice actually, so here are pictures.

Took wheels off, taped everything off.

used a high grit sand paper to take off everything and remove blemishes.

primered a few coats, sanded each coat smooth.

done in a fully heated vented paint room, set at about 90 degrees. Was super nice compared to the outside 40 degree and raining weather.

Final product
