My buddy painted my xj using jeep mopar code px8 he owns a local maaco and the wheels I've got them on craiglist for $ 200 bucks ,think they were from a TJ rubicon 2004 so I've decided to painted them flat black using VHT roll bar & chassis paint.

That's a nice paint job! Espically from Maaco I heard their prep work sucks did you have to tell them to sand it?
