I think they look good against the black. What did you use to paint them?

The car is Idigo Blue - but my camera is crap!!!

i filled in the lady driving mistakes (dents & scrapes courtesy of the wife) with some body filler, smoothed it off, painted in primer and used a can of black gloss, left to bake in the sun for 30mins and there you are!

The wheels look good in black... esp as the car is a dark colour..

What's next in the list of mods? :-)

They look so much better than your description suggests. Nice shiney finish!
