Then just spray around the rims evenly and be sure not to ever hold the can still while you're spraying to keep it all even. You can spray a top coat on it to finish, but I didn't bother. It looked fine without it. Here are some pictures of it. The first time I did it I made them white. Now they're gold. I think they look good.


whoa...just normal household spraypaint? just spraypaint then clear coat? whoa, might think about doing it then since it seem so easy....and it stays on huh? how do you remove the spraypaint if it sticks so well?

-btw, got a SSM 'lude and dont know what color to paint....lol any suggestions? maybe stock?
