    Painted my rims

    and then dropped the front one the next day while moving them around. Took a little chip off of the lip. I was pissed at first, but that's the way it usually goes. Not bad for my first shot at painting.

    Yup, rim stripes from Tapeworks will cover that ding right up!

    Easy to spot on the race track too.

    Nice job BTW!

    Painted my rims

    I know you guys are joking, but rim strips won't help. It on the extreme outer edge (like where they get scratched from changing) . I'll just touch up a little and live with it. Total cost was $0 because my boss had extra paint and clear that he gave me. I have fully polished rims now which look awesome, but I ride whenever so after it rains they are a mess. I was just fooling around I have an extra set of plastic that I would like to try at some point. I've had the gun for two years now and never got to use it, but it was 70 degrees on Tuesday so I gave it a shot.

    Painted my rims

    Very nice!

    Definately a good color choice! I stripped the paint of my rear rim, and now it always looks like crap. I am too lazy to clean it every time..

    Fuck it, the important part is riding!!!
