How'd ya get the rims the same blue colour.?

Did ya dye them, I took the rims + tyres off my Pro kit and im gonna use them on my other one.?

I really like that orange colour. Gonna dye mine black tho.

Just a general question, can you use lexan paint on the rims.?
I used Rit Dye to Dye the rims a dark blue. Here is the link to the color chart. [link=http://www.ritdye.com/Color+Chart.4.lasso]http://www.ritdye.com/Color+Chart.4.lasso[/link]

The exact color I used was Navy Blue. The longer you leave it the Dye in the darker it will become. I am also getting some proline LRP rims and will be dying those Orange as well.

As far as the blue color for the body I used Parma paint for air brushing.

I don't see why you couldn't use the LExan paint on rims, but they will chip also. Dying it is the way to go.
