Well,I got it stripped and sanded last night.So,I masked it off and shot primer,then Metallic Silver.I wanted a rallye wheel color,but only had what was available in town to choose from.I know I have some silvers and greys stashed somewhere.What I didn`t want was for it to look like metal,like fake chrome.I wanted it to look painted metallic grey or silver.Well,I think it`s a little too "like chrome" for me.I guess I wanted bigger metallic.I`m a bit disappointed...

Back to before...

Another after...
