I tried to duplicate the 10th anniversary cobra wheels color on the truck. I am very happy with how they turned out.





They have a real nice metallic flake to them, they look awesome in the sun.

No offense, but they look like mine when i haven't washed the brake dust off

No really, they look nice! How much did it run you to get them painted? My ex curbed all 4 of mine and i'm looking into getting them recoated.

Thanks for the info! Tip: do not let your woman drive your truck. Lesson learned

Hey Gator, Ill get them done tomorrow, the problem being sites that will let me put up high resolution photos that don't distort the pics. I working on it, if anything Low Rez like the ones above will be up tomorrow.
