# Yup.. and beware.. those paints get VERY brittle in a short period of time, and are prone to chipping and flaking. any grain of sand that hits your rim will cause it to chip. nm

: Matt had fairly good luck with duplicolor or krylon.. wait it was krylon matching on his spoiler in the rear.. it was however starting to flake/blush a little at the ends when I was there a couple weeks ago..

: I was told by an account earlier this week he had fairly decent luck with some brand of "gunmetal" you get at AutoZone.. $4 a can or something.. said it worked great for a quick/dirty spray on rims..

: : i ordered 3 cans of gun metal grey paint for my rims and 3 cans of body color paint that will hopefully match. gonna try to fix up my spoiler the cheap way. at 5 bucks a can its worth it.

  - Yes. that's why they make flex-additives for the good paints. nm Matt (93SE) 10:02:20 7/10/2002 (0)
