Painted stock wheels
I really like the stock wheels and as the summer is almost over, here in Switzerland, I decided to get the 18 inch wheels painted (dark chrome) instead of spending thousands for new wheels. I'll wait for next spring 
Mods:
- H&R Lowering springs
- Painted wheels
- tinted windows
Next:
- caliper paint
- maybe oem rear spoiler
I really have to get some spacers as well

Some more pics (low quality, will take some good pics tomorrow):
Well, Switzerland is kind of expensive and I payed 250 Swiss francs/wheel, so 1000 swiss francs (about 780 USD).
It's a two step procedure:
1. Paint the wheel black
2. second layer special silver (we call it argentum-silver)
This way you can choose on how dark or light the wheels should turn out.

it's not like you have an expensive girlfriend to support either so no excuse for not rolling on blinged out 20s
