Several coats of self etching primer and then paint. Easy to do and looks great.

I would definitely just paint those black. Aluminum wheels are way cooler to me anyway. Kinda tough on the rocks though.

I think that looks awesome

. Great idea! That is exactly the look I am going for on a rim. I think it will look good with the deep water blue on my rubicon

Good work!

Looks good. I might try that on my stock rubi wheels. They have trail scratches, so it might just blend them in better.

Your rubi wheels are clear coated so it won't work out like his did. It would look good though if you could.

I took a close up pic to give a better idea as to what it looks like....the little black speckles are from being nicked on rocks, so don't mind those.
