You could almost get a new set of wheels (not tires as well) for the prices i was quoted for doing this.

I think a few of the non-U.S.A. bound MS3's have gunmetal wheels STOCK. Personally, I'm tired of cleaning the bastards, and look forward to a simple, thin, 5-7 spoke w/ a deep lip.

Deep lips and high offsets dont go together. Unless you are talking about a taller lip like the rim...

I like the stockers too, but was thinking of either polishing and/or chroming them. Anyone have pics of these done, or photoshopped?

Gunmetal on a black MS3 would look sick. Thats what I want. How much would it cost to get them pdr coated?

Search craig's list...there are folks out there doing it for like $25 a wheel.

I either want mine (Cosmic blue) to have stock wheels powder coated gunmetal with tint and flat black emblems/badges, or black Work Emotions (or replicas)...

My buddy had his MS6 wheels powdercoated Gunmetal and I can tell you it looks awesome. Don't be hesitant to do it, because you won't be disappointed. His costed $80/wheel here in Ottawa, Ontario.

Is powdercoating something relatively simple to do? I dont really feel like having to search for a reputable shop to do it... can most anyone that has some experience do it nicely?
