Repainted rims

So I repainted some Enkei MM2"s I had lying around that had some curb damage. I just figured I would post some pics and hear some opinions. They are going on my 05 Black box with some new Goodyear Eagle F1's 215/45ZR17's.

The pic is too small for me to comment yet. But as far as I can tell it looks good.

They look pretty good at first glance, it'd be easier to tell with some larger, installed pics.

Here are some larger pics I will not be installing them till after the snow season is over, and overhere in Germany it snows till around May. But I think I might be putting them on in Late March.

Masking took some time but I like the finished product.

It's amazing how some well designed paint job can completely change the way a wheel looks.

The red only did look good I thought but for red to go on a black box would be kinda bright, plus the lip had to be painted due to the curb damage. Thanks for all the responses.

There is a guy on these forums with the red rota gt3's on a white box and it looks beautiful, truthfully I think that is where my wife say the colors she picked. I think the guys name is David Steele.
