I see everyone who hates them is south/midwest US. If you come down to California everyone will love them. I fucking love them.

I give you credit for being brave and doing something different. Not my taste but I don't hate it.

How did you do the splatter? I mean I don't like the look on the car that much, but I gotta say the look of the wheel themselves is so cool with that paint! I think I might have liked them better if the base paint wasnt white.

Basically I filled up some cups with different colors of spray paint, threw some rubber gloves on and dipped my fingers in and went to town flicking it on, changing gloves for each color. I'm gona try the others in black base to see how I looks Sent using telepathy |

That's uh different.....seems like you did a nice job with the paint. I'm just not digging the splatter. Reminds me of the horrific mc hammer pants everyone used to wear.

The 90's called. They want their wheels back.
I think it would have looked better with the original look... or even bronze... or black... or something other than 90's hotwheels car.
