Its a beautiful color, kinda mellow, not to bright. I hand sanded the crap out of the rims to knock some of the roughness of the cast down in the center of the rim, looks smooth as glass now.

It really pops in direct sunlight and matches the body color out of the sun better. It's not an exact match, but then we were being realistic and knew that might happen anyway. I think that would have been a hard color to match to begin with because it's a metallic yellow color. I do think it looks way better than just the plain black stock. Thanks.

there is a bright, BRIGHT, flourescent yellow available.
These rims looked pretty bright on the first coat, the second coat gave them some depth and darkened 'em up a wee bit.
This color is Nothing like the flourescent yellow.
