Default Powder Coating Track Rims what do You think??

Well, i'm thinking about powdercoating my rims a Gold / bronze color. Like the title says whats everyones opinion?? So far my friends are 50/50, I think i'll have to do the door handles also, this was just a quick photochop. I hear prices are about 200-300 for all four wheels.

i was going to do the exact same. Someone told me that powdercoating forged wheels will weaken the structure of the wheel. You can paint the wheels professionally as well. i think a light gold would look good. That's a horrible chop you got there..lol. I made a chop on my car but in gunmetal. PM me if you need the pic.
