Default Powdercoating Idea...

I was thinking of getting my wheels powdercoated. This is how it would turn out. What do you all think?

That would look mean. I'm a fan of black wheels.

DO IT!

You're definitely not the first to have such an idea, but I would like to see someone follow through with it for once.

I say go for it, uniqueness is coolness =D

Verry original.... I kinda like it.... but I think it would only look good on a black car.

I'd say go for it.

Did the same with my STM's, came out great. You don't have to worry about someone having the same wheels as you anymore.

you guys are misunderstanding, hes talking about powdercoating the lip bronze. The wheels are already black.

Exactly... I would powdercoat the centers of a bronze rim black. Originally I wanted to do that with a silver Nismo so I would have black with a polished lip, but unfortunatly I ended up getting bronze wheels because I got a really good deal on it.

Yeah, one way or the other, the consensus is *do it*...
