Yeah I think it looks great from the times that I used it.
I thought I was going to get crap because I am using "spray paint" so I was gonna just wait ti'll people saw the pics.
Good to hear you liked it too.

Re: Check these rims out
I liked it and have also had zero problems with chipping or anything so far. It looks great too! Did you get the clear coat with it? It really makes a difference. I didn't use it on the Bonneville rims, but I did on the Blazer rims and you can really see the Blazer rims have a nicer shine to them. I have also cleaned them up with some pretty good wheel cleaner that I have and had no issues with that either.
Just make sure to tell the tire shop to either static balance the rims ( all weight on the inside ) or use the stick on weights. You don't want those weights on the front of a nice rim like that... I am sure you know already though.

Re: Check these rims out
Here they are. I thought the stock center caps would fit but they do not, so I still need to get them.
This is at dusk so sorry about the blurry pics.
