  • glow in the daaarrrrrk???

    hey guys like i said imma be painting my rims white before the show in SB next week and i was really thinkin of layin down a layer of glow in the dark spray on em.......
    ive been debating on if i should do it or not.
    now this glow in the dark paint needs to be charged before it glows and i think thas a good thing cuz i dont think id want them glowing constantly at night.
    during the day the rims will appear white but at night theyll either glow or just be white....

    fawk i just dont noe how much shit id get about rolling around on rims that glow in the dark....
    watchu guys think??

      Stupid question: How is it "charged"?

                    The problem with glow in the dark wheels is that by the time it gets dark enough to look good, you're going to lose your charge.

                        i think most of the glow in the dark sprays are a clear overlay...
                        not too sure.

                          do it!! i guess you can just keep a light in your car and at night before a drive just charge them up. I think they will look good. some one needs to paint their wheels florescent yellow so when you hit them with headlights those bad boys light up
