Painted Black OEM Foundry Wheels

[Edwin]

I probably won't get around to buying new wheels for a while so I decided to paint my wheels black. I like them better than the graphite gray color. Sorry for the low light crappy phone pics, I finished this as soon as it started to rain.

I like the yellow/black combo . What type of paint did you use? Did you plastidip them..spray paint ?

Thanks. That's just Plastidip. 2 light coats and 2 heavier coats. Then 3 coats of glossifier. I've seen other people dip their wheels and have them hold up well enough. I guess we'll see.

okay good to know... do you think you might go full blackout ..emblems? exhaust tips? wrapped roof? I saw somewhere that a full blackout mustang is coming as an option for 2016

I have the emblems, mirror caps, and diffuser blacked out completely. I'm on the fence about the tips. I have the roof accent stripes on right now. I'm considering either going for the hood spears to match or getting the roof wrap instead. A full black out would definitely be a sweet option.

I did the same minus the glossifier. Really like the way it turned out! I wouldn't do the tips, the temperature might get to high for the dip.

That looks awesome with those fender stripes!

I've plastisiped my wheels on my Dodge Ram when I had it, held up wonderfully during the crappy winter NY had last year especially with all the salt they threw down. I've also plastidiped my exhaust tip too on my 5in exhaust tip and not one problem with either. Might just have to touch up some spots after a year.

Looks good Edwin.

Thanks! I've actually removed them since I took this picture. Had to get the dealership to reapply glasscoat. I haven't decided if I will redo the fender stripes or not.

Either way, nice looking car. Definitely flows better with your black accents than that OEM gray color would.
