My husband painted my rims for me. It took a LOT of tape. He taped off the whole rim, then cut out the circles. He had a paint shop mix some regular automotive two-stage paint to match the pink decals I have on my car and put it in a spray can. First he sprayed the pink, then he sprayed a metallic clear, then the final clear coat. It took him 4 hours each rim. He did a great job!
FOUR HOURS A RIM?!!!!! [:@] OMFG....you have pictures of these things? For 16 hours they better do more than roll!
The front bumper IS NOT aligned (the bolts are just caught a thread or two)and the hood is only latched to the first strike. A few more things to bolt together and I'll be good to go (the headlights aren't bolted down either) Oh yeah....and I blacked out the FMIC too

Looks great there LSP. But I think you stole my AAR Cuda idea cause I am waiting for the money to get my side exit and lowering springs! The paint job looks great. Do you have any side pics? And i wouldn't be afraid to drive a pink panther car...as long as no one could catch up to me
Looks awesome. Really! I like it a lot. I noticed in one of the pics at an angle it looks like the intercooler was painted too. (Black?). Or am I on crack? I also couldn't help but notice in some of the pics it almost looks like you're flipping somebody off. Then I thought no that's Crystal, she's a sweet girl, must've been something on the lens. 
You need to give yourself a big pat on the back for this. I smell a magazine cover coming!

Oh yes, sweet little innocent me was definitely flipping someone off 
Yes the intercooler is painted black also. I didn't think it looked right leaving it alone. I can't wait to put him all back together and get him back on the road again. Unfortunately the battery has lived its last leg, so I have to get a new one, but thats a minor inconvienience

Can't wait to see it finished....your project is giving me more ideas...Plum Crazy anyone?
The blackend intercooler and crosshair up front is a very nice touch. What other plans do you have for him? Have you thought about adding a carbon fiber pistol grip short shifter?

wow! that thing will be a head turner when done.
try an ultima battery if it is turning into an occasional driver.
I hope plumb comes back for the challenger...hoping for a slab sided cuda even more though.
