Painted wheels and calipers

[bobbyw]

I just finished painting my Enkei RS5's. The previous owner painted them black, then bronze. Now I painted them back to original silver color. I think it looks way cleaner, but it did look nice before, just not my thing. I painted the calipers red, and the overlays are from parked car.
Before-

After-

And the overlays-

What do you think?

Thanks. The rims aren't perfect, but unless youre really close, its fine. And i love the overlays, props to parkedcar

I personally liked the rims before hand, bronze on black is :drool::drool: But either way it still looks good now. I love the overlays too, thats the first 24v one I have seen reworked in that fashion, looks killer.

looks way better silver. nice job!

p.s. your brake caliper spring is on wrong in the first pic. the edges need to be on the outside of the bracket not the inside. so stretched and sitting on the bracket. i learned the hard way and had a total of 4 fall off while driving.

Ha, if you look through my threads, I just posted one about that. I had a shop put them on wrong, and needed new pads. And thanks for reminding me, I forgot to put them back on.
