    I was hoping I could find someone on the forums who would notice this thread and a have a few minutes of free time to do this for me.
    My car is pretty ghetto and a friend of mine just painted his rims on his 97 VW Golf orange and they actually look like sex.

    Is there anyone here who could photoshop the rims to a lime green or even a dark red just so I can get a faint clue of what it looks like.

    or

    It would be much appreciative if anyone can do this.

    Thanks in advance.

    The fact that they are just my winter setup is the reason why I'm painting them. My regular setup is much sleeker.

    Colored hub caps look almost as dumb as spinner hub caps. I wouldn't recommend painting them, but that's just me.

    First, they aren't hubcaps, and second, this looks pretty slick to me.

    They looked like hub caps and is that powder coated?

    If i would paint rims if i had a car, i would paint them black. An other color would look stupid imo :P

    Instead of Painting the Rims you could better save up your money and buy a new car...

    I was lucky enough to have an older bro who bought a new car so he just gave me his old one for free. As for saving up. I have more than enough money for a nice car, but I'm in Grade 12 and I just plan to save for 4 more years while I get my degree in Uni and then finally put the money towards a "first" nice car.

    Also, like I stated before, this is my winter tire setup, so it's only on my car for 4 months. It's suppose to be ridiculous and stupid. I would never keep it like this over the summer. I've even thinking about doing pink this winter haha.
