Default Painted my wheels today!

after seeing chris' (cbrtrx) car with solid black wheels I decided it was time to paint mine. I did want something a little different though so I masked off the lips of the rim and left them the factory silver color that matches the car pretty good. They are not polished lips. Let me know what you think. I like it alot.. total cost >$30
