Hey Sambo-

Where did you get the vinyl you put on the rims? It makes them look nice... Also, did you use self-etching primer and clear coating? If so, how many coats of coating did you apply?

PhishJeep -

Do you still have the process pics? Looks like thread has aged to a point where all your pics are .

Perhaps someone else does too?

howdy guys, I did this a while back to mine. They came out great, used a matte black finish. Just curious though, does anyone know the best process for a re-touch? Mine are starting to fade out just a tad. Will get some pics up tomorrow.

Where did you get the paint for that, and what kind is it?

Does it match the 2011 interior?

How long do you let it dry between coats? Why no clear coat?
