so as i posted up the other day, i picked up a set of mercury mystique wheels off kijiji... 50$ with tires.
so i figured why not?!
so i had a paint scheme in my head for em... but it didnt turn out how i wanted it to, so i went back to drawing board, after some re sanding and removing of the paint i put on(that looked sooooo ghey) i sprayed them black... as i was looking more at them i noticed, hey that lip looks a lot like my focus wheels, why not try a red lip??
so heres how the one wheel i was having some fun on today turned out. not the greatest picture as its off my blackberry and that after just taking 20 mins to do a quick paint on it

Well, it's certainly interesting, but the scheme reminds me of the 1960's era Batmobile (My first thought when I glanced at the paint scheme was "Where's the Bat emblem?" :lol:

Looks good, now try going to a sign shop and have a decal put over the mercury logo, maybe instead of a blue ford or focus logo make it red or silver
