Looks so good with the black rally's and black grill looks good too. How do you prevent bugs from chipping the paint?

Not driving it ha ha. No on the grill I used that fusion paint I believe satin and so far so good. Thanks for the compliments guys my Granddad bought this Big 10 brand new so trying to get her back rolling. Just needing to get a few little things and hoping to have it ready for a car show in 2 weeks.

And by the way chevylover2013 these are 15x8 with 31x10.50 tires the black paint makes them look even deeper imo

That is not a bad idea!
I have seen them painted before but they are usually completely painted; I like that it has what looks like a polished edge to it.
Also looks like the "brushed" finish of the aluminum gives it a matte look too.

Re: Restored my rally's
 
My grandad bought it new down in Mississippi then my dad got it about 10 years ago got it painted and didn't really do anything with it now I got it and have been going through it for the past 2 years and hopefully in the next 2 weeks it'll be back on the road.
