Could be a neat look with the bare machined areas adding some contrast.


These are the rims I'm running:
You need the black base dip to build up layers and also provide something for the metalizer to stick to. Metalizer/pearls are much more fluid than standard plastidip.

One can per wheel, at least 3 cans for all four wheels. Any less and it'll be a nightmare to peel off later.
