Can 03 Machined Cobra rims be painted??

[99GTNOOB]

I was wondering if anyone knows if 03 machined cobra rims can be dipped, baked, rattle canned or whatever to be painted??

 

[evil281]

i would think so

 

[99GTNOOB]

well i was looking into just rattle canning them with some rim paint and then clear coating them but not sure if that would sit well on the finish

 

[evil281]

just prep it properly and it should work, maybe try an adhesive promoter like bulldog or something

Isn't there already a clearcoat on them from the factory?

Yes, I believe. If the clearcoat is in good shape, you could simply scuff that and lay your paint down on that.

But if it were me, I'd have em powdercoated.
