Just wondering what brand of wheel paint did you use to get that dark bronze color. I like it.

You ridin stock height? It looks little dropped, but can't tell because its taken in an angle. I want to this but wasn't sure if it would look good with stock height.

so is the Plasti Dip just to hold the color paint on? Don't they make some kind of primer that would work better or is PD just used so you can take it off later?

I was a little hesitant to do mine, until I saw this. Holy damn that would look awesome on my '09 Red Sport. Kudos man!

Correct, the plastidip is the base layer so that I can remove it easily later on.

Couldn't find my good camera, but here are lower side profile shots. I'm also running Continentals DWS 205/50/16
