Blacked Out

SS32 · 09-19-2009, 07:39 PM

Just got done with this tonight. It took me two days worth of work, but I'm very pleased with the results. I'll get some better shots tomorrow.

M3ltdown · 09-19-2009, 07:56 PM

looks nice... is it flat black or semi-gloss?

I'm thinking about copying the M3 edition and do semi-gloss....

M3PGH · 09-19-2009, 08:00 PM

it looks good, but it needs a drop.

bobbyd1961 · 09-19-2009, 08:23 PM

not into it

Silverstone · 09-19-2009, 08:38 PM

looks great...but i hate it when the wheels look brown compared to a lot of black...

SS32 · 09-19-2009, 08:57 PM

Yeah, they look terrible right now. The tires are incredibly dirty from all the sanding. I'm going to wash it tomorrow and get some better pictures.

m5sparky · 09-19-2009, 10:28 PM

i think its too much black. something missing.

catch · 09-19-2009, 10:58 PM

tire shine is your friend!!!!!!!

SS32 · 09-20-2009, 02:02 PM

A few more shots with a real camera and cleaner tires. Yes, I know there's a chunk missing from my tire; new ones shipped out friday.

And if anyone has seen the hangover, you'll appreciate this

MIKEYBMW1 · 09-20-2009, 02:16 PM

shame about the kerbing on the wheel ,I would of had that repaired first.

M3 vert · 09-20-2009, 05:55 PM

Looks sick...powdercoated? or painted?

What kind semigloss or matte...hard to tell from pics.

SS32 · 09-20-2009, 06:14 PM

Rustoleum wheel paint. It's semigloss. I thought about just leaving the primer, but it was a little too gray for my tastes

Looks good.

nusevad · 09-20-2009, 06:28 PM

Looking good, now you need to get it dropped.

MJC///M3 · 09-20-2009, 06:56 PM

I think they look great. How bout painting the calipers, just to get some variation in there? Just a suggestion.

I've thought about it. I think a dark candy red would look pretty damn awesome, or maybe deep candy blue to match the BMW badges.

TheKosherStogie · 09-20-2009, 07:32 PM

def makes the bmw symbol on the wheels standout!

mikeyr0x · 09-20-2009, 07:35 PM

looks great, stealth as hell
get a set of bright white angel eyes, red rpi ram air induction scoops, and you'll have e92 knight rider

niqui · 09-20-2009, 07:54 PM

1st set of pics made me think you were crazy, 2nd set of pics made me think i was crazy for doubting you.

lazyassand1balla24 · 09-20-2009, 08:07 PM
