Sifu and AltSpace, Love those pics!!! And those AutoExe lugs are pretty sweet! I might have to get some once my wheels get powdered!

Oh, and I must admit that I was a bit of a skeptic of the concept of having a "Lug-Nut Pictures Thread" !!! HAHA!

What spray paint did you use? I've been looking for one that will give a good result like that... I've seen the Duplicolor Metalcast is that what you used?

My Enkei GF - 1 has tiny lugs, so I just painted the steel studs with my touch up paint.
