I must admit i was skeptical, could it actually work as good and as easy as everyone says? Well it does.

before:

Thinking maybe doing the Grille next? Ive seen that u can do rims too. Maybe I'll try that.

ANyone that has done the rims have any advice or tips?

Just make sure to clean them well if you have brake dust or anything like that on them. Otherwise its pretty easy as I am sure you have found out.

I did my rims and left them on tge truck when u did it. Like forandpolaris said just make sure u clean any debris off your rims first. I did use an old sheet and wrapped my rotors and calipers. Had some minor overspray on my tires but was not noticeable at all.

I used it on my door lower window trim as well- mine looked identical to yours, maybe a bit worse. IMHO, dipped wheels look like steelies.. You have alloys, show them off..

I didnt like the discoloration happening in my rim center caps so i thought i would try them in black.

I didnt like the way the looked all black so peeled of the outer ring of dip.

I think it looks pretty good in the rim.

I really like the way it looks. Now that i like it I'll redo it later and really grind down all the bumps and use permanent paint.

I was thinking it looked familiar so looked it up and it resembles the lincoln aviator rims.

What do you guys think?
