Powder coated LMGT4s?
I've got a set of Nismo LMGT4s and I was thinking about powder coating them in white, to match my PPW Z. Has anyone powder coated LMGT4s before? I'm trying to get an idea of how it'll look. Thanks.
Time attack LMGT4s would look sick, but in my opinion, not on a PPW. But, should I have them coated in the color of the car (Pikes peak white pearl QX1) or just solid white? I'm thinking solid white will stand out more. The lip is currently stainless. Should it be white or leave it stainless?

Those are available in a 10.5 rear. And, they come in white. How come they're not listed in the NISMO Official catalog? Are they not the real deal or what? I'll definitely go with those before powder coating.

What's funny is that time attack color schemes and dark faced/polished lip wheels are totally played out now. Some people here are saying white wheels are "old", but in reality I think they're a fresh look if done right.

just got them on this weekend and they look hotttter than i imagined they would. not rice at all. the old hondas/acuras that had color matched wheels looked cheap because the car itself looks cheap, and the wheels tended to look like plastic. doesn't look that way at all with the z and volks.

funny you say that because with the pearl white, colormatched PPW look better...the other white wheels are too flat of a white and look like an awkward contrast...
I appreciate white on white, just colormatched...
