Ooh, the finish is so smooth. :O
And you've taped off the tyres before painting to. I know a dude who painted the wheels on his truck without blocking off the tyres. Wish I had those wheels. :O

believe it or not, this was actually an autozone-product project :shock:

all products including paint were from autozone
simple aluminum/metal spray paint

total cost of project which included sandpaper and paint: $50

use aircraft remover to remove the original paint/clearcoat

then sand to remove any imperfections
