I like them, they look real nice, give your fella a pat on the back.

Hate to rain on your parade its a good job but you cant paint alloys give it a month and it will look s**t. If it doesnt let us know

why can you not, how do you think they get done in the first place

Yup i agree, dont get me wrong powder coating them etc is better but alot more expensive, i hope they last well, keep us updated if they do start to blister etc, i;m sure they wont unless they get chipped etc.

Just like normal fiat alloys!

Well aren't most car wheels painted not powdercoated. Its surely to do with the lacquer that goes on after thats determins whether the finish will stay nice or not.

or knee

should we be worrying about your males knee obsession??

well we havent seen his back, it might not be very nice, atleast we know the knee's alright

lol, yeah i guess he might have a scary hairy back not so nice

Hold on a minute guys... what youre saying about not being able to spray wheels is Bull***t!!!!!!!
1. Ive sprayed the wheels of my cousin's Integra Type R (from white to Black, with no primer and lacquer) and they been on the car for 10 months, not a scratch not a flake!
2. Ive sprayed the wheels of his cinquecento, black, no primer or lacquer, theyve been about 6 months and not a scratch
3. And ive also sprayed my own wheels black, (but i reversed into a pavement whilst leaving the local pub ) so theyre not so black anymore, but ill just spray them again and this time wont scratch them!

... Point is spraying wheels isnt a waste of time!!! Infact they look much better than they did standard!!!

Are they black now? Ive got black alloys on my punto, they're scratched up by kerbing by the previous owner. Are the windows tinted too? I cant really see..
