plasti-dipped my silver enkei raijins with matte bronze plasti dip from dipyourcar (they call it "brass monkey"). came out ok, but i have a little texture i need to fix with paint thinner.
the part i'm mad about is i found out discount tire cross threaded on of my lugs and i ended up breaking the stud to get it off. they cross threaded a lug on the front passenger side and owned up to it and paid for repair. they didn't tell me (or didn't realize) that they cross threaded one on the rear drivers side as well. discount tire already said they'll pay to have this one fixed as well, but the shop they use is giving me a hard time about it. wasn't my fault dude, its not like i cross-threaded it on the way out.
i can't blame discount tire too much though since the OEM lugs are trash. i already ordered a set of muteki sr48s to replace them with. still if you take your time and start out hand-winding you shouldn't be cross threading anything ever. my guess is the guy doing the tire install was pretending to be a nascar pit mechanic and did the whole change with the gun.
