Intakes shrouds and wheels...nothing fancy, just 5 coats of black, no glossifier(wanted a flat/matte look).
A good thorough washing was the only prep.

One tip: clean the nozzle before each coat to prevent globbing. Use a pin or other small pointed object to peel the dry material off of the nozzle, then turn can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear it out. Never rub anything on the nozzle as this will just force material into it causing a clog.
Also, hit the hard to get to areas first...and somewhat heavy(lug holes and outer edge of the wheel).
