? on powdercoat/paint rims?

[81DaytonaPaceCar]

With my anal retentiveness, I managed to find 2 flaws total (on 2 different wheels) that likely came from not perfectly prepping them...smudges under the clear on the bare aluminum.

But...I didn't pay for concourse, so I didn't ***** one bit.

Damn...that's kinda pricey...but yeah, they look great.

If you want waaaaay too much information...

The original color of gold there is code 55 Aztec Gold (originally from 1976) that was used for the gold T/A wheels in 1989.

AWR could not find a powdercoat that existed in code 55 Aztec Gold, but offered to custom mix a batch...for a price.

Not.

I told them just to get as close as possible...really don't have any clue what the actual color is, but they came extremely close to nailing it right on.

For the multi step process I required, they were by far and away the most cost friendly shop that was quoted...two other shops quoted me $175 and $195 a wheel...

please dont do black wheels lol

im with joel... don;t do them in black

Have you considered a dark gray instead of black. I think a nice gunmetal would make your car go a long way. You could probably have the whole set painted for a couple of hundred. I think this would be a much better choice for you...



Here is a Formula in a similiar green with painted gun metal stockers. I think those SS wheels you've got would look great like these...

Black wheels with a polished lip might look sharp...

[kammi10]

yeah i think the black would look much better then the gray anyway... a black and polished lip might look decent but all black no

Yeah, I could see that maybe working...

...thats what I want to do on my car. The rims I want only come in silver and "hyper black" (gunmetal). Then again, my car is white.

ya that photoshop gave me a rough idea of what it will look like. im not doing black. its not where i want to go with the look of the car.

up this way about $50 a rim to $75 taped off with a silver lip and edges
just to give you an idea.

yea ive thought about black wheels when I first got my camaro..and then I seen pictures of all black and nearly through up.. Green camaro, black wheels polished lip look good.. but like they say..wheels can either make or break the car

Not SS rims, but somewhat of what you're looking for. My brother has all black Z06 rims on his car...

[MP81]

Those look decent.
