well, i just got done color matching my hubcaps to my 2006 shadow mica xb

i work at a paint manufacturer, so i had the local auto paint mix up some paint and reduce it, then i had my work put it into aresol cans. worked really good.

i poped out the scion embleds, then hot glued them back on afterwards

i think it looks pretty cool for not very much money

here are some pics

Nice work, but can we get some pictures in sunlight? In these pictures they just look black.
