Well since I am most likely going to be getting a suspension kit I was wondering what you think of me doing my stock Tri-Bars like this. This is just for now since I don't have money for new wheels. This is a quick photoshop and also my car will be lowered a little over an inch too.

Wouldn't be my first choice, but with limited cash and only for the time being I think it could look pretty good. As the others said though...DEFINITELY in gloss black. I think the flat black in the picture doesn't do it justice.

I would do it in a gloss black...it was just kind of hard to get the picture glossy do to the wheel stock not being glossy.

Do you guys recommend any types of paint I should use... I want to use a gloss black and maybe go over it in a clearcoat or something like that

No black x 100. Better repainting them original unless you want to be knight rider. Y uasked, just my-o. Good luck either way!
