Default Hydroimaged my wheels

This was about 8 months ago. LOL! Wanted to post pics but, life happens. To be honest, i have never posted a pic of my truck on here. Got the wheels free and stripped them then had the shop do their work. It's a marble pattern. All the pics were taken on a I phone, not very good lol!

Before




Stripped



Imaging done, no polish on the lip



done




on the truck

Haha! I removed the pic of my truck. It was pointless since it was so small.

Didn't realize how small the pics were until I posted them. You can't even tell the wheels are hydro imaged.... epic fail

Use google newbie.......... Hahahaha!



It's a process of applying a image to just about anything. You base coat, dip the part into a tank that has the image film, clear coat and your done. Check it out on YouTube. Pretty cool stuff.

Thank you Capt. Obvious. The pic is crap. As stated before the pics are smaller than I thought. I guess when I uploaded them it resized them......
