Photochopped Jeep... Need Opinions
Permalink  

The top pic is my Jeep as it sits now. The bottom pic is my Jeep with a photochopped lift that closely simulates what it will look like when my lift is installed.


I am thinking about having the wheels painted a really dark satin charcoal color. Do you like the wheels stock or the photochopped color? I have a paint guy so I know I can get them painted for less than the cost of new wheels.


Opinions welcome...

I like it, but it's such a subtle difference than I don't know if it's worth the hassel? Your factory finish will last longer anyways. Only real "correct" way to paint the wheels is to beadblast them down to bare metal than re-shoot them. Yeah it might be cheaper than new rims, but it's definatlly not as easy.

I agree with Adam , I think i would leave them the way there are. You did say you would like to get new wheels eventually any way. The money spent painting could be put somewhere else.
