noooooo, dont do the white wheel thing. It screams of teenage Corsa boys.
All you have to remember is that prep is king. The more effort you put in, the better the results. Heat is also good, so if you can do it indoors in a clean warm enviroment you'll get a better finish.
I know the rat look appears easy to do but trust me its not. it will look Really patchy if you get it wrong.
How many cans did you buy? You know you could have proberbly bought professional paint and hired a sprayer and compressor for the same, or less?
Good luck with it.
-
Don't use spray cans!
Please tell me you bought proper paint and are using a gun.

nope using simoniz matt black acrylic spray, done a test spray on a spare door,came out ok, :wink:
i plan to have some big vinyl over it aswel so will cover some of my mistakes :D
as for vinyls maybe a chrome GT grand taurismo style writing?
-
Do NOT spray it with cans.
look horrible and u can see were i have sprayed it, get it done with a compressor.
and im not keen on banded steelies at all.
