   I used Hammerite smooth - 3 coats and job done! Still look great after 6 months on the car.

   Dont do them red, everyone does that, i have a completely black focus with black alloys with green rim and green calipers, looks smart. but if you have a white theme id do them white, but would get dirty really quickly, try hamerite silver, would be a nice clean standard look.

    lol you are using yellow so im thinking red as i have a red interior so would match better, even though i know every man and his dog has done it lol and think i will be using hammerite paint now
