Thought it would be nasty, but turned out to be pretty nice looking

Looks nice. Reminds me of my old Subaru STI with World Rally Blue and Gold BBS wheels.

I am not a big fan of the 19" polished wheels BMW offers on the M3's(E46 or E9X). Having said that, in all seriousness, I like the gold 19's you have. But at the end of the day, you had an epic WIN with these: JMNSHO

The wheels were already sandblasted. Put 2 coats of primer, 2 coats of Rost-Oleum Gold (Hammered look), 2 coats of clear coat to protect paint.
