Default spraypainted my wheels. Tell me what you think...pleeze?

Before:

sorry for the dark pics, took these with my phone.


First I taped off the tires then cut out a circle from a CB box to fit inside the wheel to avoid overspray and the use of too much masking tape. Then put on 5 to 6 coats of Krylon white gloss then 3 to 4 coats of Krylon clcear coat.



After:





the tiny overspray is now gone thanks to a little neverdull


Again i apologize for the dark pics. I've already got them mounted and I'll post more pics with a legit camera and rolling pics.
I hope I didn't destroy a nice set of wheels . whatchu tink?

Looks fine. My only issue with it is that white is gonna be tough to keep clean.

I think it's a waste of time and paint but if YOU like it, that's all that matters!
