Thanks, S K. I must admit that I have been thinking of spraying my rims gold in colour all this while to go with the car body's green colour. However, I am n...

I have an old car which I would like to customise. I thought of spray painting my rims to add a distinctive look. However, I am not sure if this would only cause my rim to look worse.

Any advise from the brothers and sisters here?
Has anyone out here tried this before?
Would people laugh at me if I spray paint it myself?
Is there a recommended brand of spray paint?

hi..are they normal rims with wheel covers? or are they sports rims?

Rims with wheel covers u will be able to just change the wheel cover to a sportier looking one and it will look very good already.

Sport rims u can srapy them. let the shops do it for u to ensure a good job done. Its common to spray rims so dun worry.

They are normal rims with wheel covers. Can I spray the rim cover?

u need to ensure the spray job is done properly to avoid the “home-sprayed” look. also, as long as u don’t spray it in my fav colour, nobody would laugh at u.

Mr. Green

anyway whats uzut green?

hotxyz2002 SG

Uzut green is basically military green. Try to visualize those Mindef minibus and cars to get a better picture of the colour.

What does GP stands for?
I had no choice since I bought the car at a reasonable price from this uncle. So now I am just trying to maximise what i have. That is why I thought of spray-painting the rims.

[email protected] SG

GP stands for general purpose
what car is it?

hotxyz2002 SG

It is a Daihatsu charade.
It is a general purpose car for me actually. I would like to spray the rims just to enhance a bit more of its overall appearance.

[email protected] SG

ooo is it the hatch back? we used to own one, back in 88 or 89 i think... a charade, 5 door hatch... 1l. very cute and lovable.

white rims would match that green pretty well...but white rims so hard to maintain Very Happy
