Man, those look nice. How much did that set you back if you don't mind me asking? I never thought about doing that. It has definitely peaked my interest...

My buddy just painted his MSP rims gunmetal and they look real sharp! Im tempted to paint my stockers black with polished lip but i may dump that idea and buy racing harts!

I like.
I painted my 5zigens to match my hood and roof. I am thinking about painting my stockers, black center and doing a laser blue lip.

Why did you not get them powdercoated for that price? It's a hell of a lot more durable than that wet paint. I can see if you are trying to match the cars colour, but every powdercoating shop has satin black in stock.(bang)

To get wheels powdercoated it should'nt cost you more than $30.00 Canadian dollars a wheel, if you get them sandblasted yourself first. That's what we charge here on the west coast........
