    I had them painted by a local paint guy. But they didn't turn out as nice as I would like.

    It looks good from far away, but close up, it's about a 'B, B-'. maybe a 'C' depending on your pickiness level.

    I don't like the matte look and I really don't like the OEM silver chrome so this was the best quick solution. And the cheapest OEM dark chrome badges I could find online were over $400(?!).

    I am thinking of doing another set with a better painter or learn to paint it myself when the ones I have on now start to fade or if the poor paint job starts to bother me more lol

    thank you, really appreciate it :)

    hopefully get some more mods in soon

    gold wheels were never my thing, so I'm still getting used to them :rolleyes:

    Well if you are available you should come, this event is not a car show, so don't worry about it!
