I put a white primer coat on first, and then used a blue paint that is supposed to give an anodized look. Looks like it worked to me. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> We'll just have to see how long it lasts. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Thinking of repainting mine. I've got some areas where the paint is gone down to the metal and want to repaint to help prevent future rust. Any tips on prep work, specifically what's the best way to get in there to remove the dial's old red paint? Or did you just put the primer right over the top of it?
If'n ya want it bling bling instead of single bling, you'll need to replace those rusted hub cover bolts with new SS hardware!

I agree, the bolts don't really look that bad in person, but I guess my camera has better eyes than me. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
