It's a fuckin joke, damn police down there.

Thanks alot man. I am lovin them so much. Makes the truck look much better. I am thinkin about gettin some black headlights to match my corner lights. I think it would look good going with the wheels.

1. Clean the wheels with some wheel cleaner.
2. Taped off everything I did not want to paint
3. Lightly sanded the wheel.
4. Did a coat of self etch primer.
5. Did 2-3 coats of Acrylic enamel (paint store guy said Enamel paint was the best to help prevent chipping) gloss black spray paint.
6. Did 2-3 coats of clear And DONE!

Wasnt too hard at all. The only thing that took the longest was tapin up every thing that i didnt want black.

Awesome, sounds like fun.

I think I may just do it!

Even though peeps are only gonna see the front wheels, cause I use them for winter only with big snow steelies in the back.

Re: Post pics of YOUR XTREME/ZQ8!!!

I used VHT Niteshades from Summit, you can use Testors model car tint as well...

I put on 1 coat let it dry, then a second, then a third.

Light even coats is the key...

Then after it was all dry I put three coats of Dupli-Color clear coat.

Actually very simple.

You can wet sand after the niteshade coats if you wish, I think it gives it a little more shine, but its just extra work I was not interested in.

Cost me less than $20.00 for everything.

Professionals like Jonstintedtails.com charge $100 including shipping...crazy,

I just reccemond getting your groove down on something else plastic and clear before hitting your tails.

Re: Post pics of YOUR XTREME/ZQ8!!!

Remember...the first coat you lay down sets the tone for the whole thing.

Theres no going back afterwards if you f-up the first coat.

Re: Post pics of YOUR XTREME/ZQ8!!!

you eric and eriks are so damn picky about spelling haha. is the one who painted it the one with the orange BD s10 with the V8? or is it the dude with the BD blazer that was recently in minitruckin? or someone else? I met a bunch of those guys at carlisle last year, we stayed at the same hotel and talked to them a lot
