Black Wheels
I want to black out my wheels are there any suggestions on whether I should try this myself or if I should pay to have it done? Is there anyone who has done their own and if so what did you use? and thoughts or photos would help tremendously. Thanks

Re: Black Wheels
DON'T use the bedliner for the wheels. Duplicolor has special wheel paint. Use that instead. Thats what I'll be doing weather and schedule permiting.

Let me know how it turns out. Sounds like a good project.

I used the bedliner spray on my wheels and it's holding up well so far

You got any profile shots showing the whole truck? Not sure if you saw the photoshop pics I did last week on mine but thinking about doing something like you did.

Thanks for the shots, gives me a better idea of how it will look. Trying to decide if this is the route I want to go.
