Need some opinions...(lugnuts)

Someone suggested blue lugnuts to match the blue of the "Volk" logo on the wheels. I had 4 spare lugnuts so i decided to mess around with it. What do you think? Please pay no attention to how dirty the car and wheels are. lol

Very nice!

The lugs look like they came that color. What kind of paint did you use?

Duplicolor Anodizing Paint. It works amazingly well. I would get the adhesion promoter though. I didn't use it and its pretty hard to scratch this but i think it would be even better if i used that. I will probably use it on the rest of them.

I just lightly cleaned the lugs really well and sprayed some light coats.
