Im debating if i want to just alter the stock wheels, or get aftermarkets. Im fairly happy with the stock. I was thinking about getting my rims either color matched (silver metallic) or done in gunmetal. Has anyone done this to the stock wheels besides black. I tried to do a photoshop, but im not good at doing the color changes.

A few of us are thinking of powder coating our wheels. Just wait it out for a few more days to see what we could come up with.

Yeah, i think a few of us are planning to powdercoat our wheels before winter... i am just waiting to get some extra free time to go by the powdercoating shop to price things out.
been double busy with everything lately

Where is this powdercoating shop? I know you can send rims off to be dipped, but i didnt know there was a place down here. To send them and get them resurfaced is only about 60-80 a wheel... is this place signifantly more than that?

do you think powdercoating is the best way to do it?

Black Nugget

Powdercoating is defntly the best way to do it in my opinion. dave & i are probably gonna run over to the shop sometime soon & get some price quotes.. do some talking and see if we can get a discount since there are a few of us that want to do it.

me too

I think i might get a silver close to the color of the car... or gunmetal.. do they have a wide variety of colors to choose? Do you have any idea on turn around time?

Black Nugget

I do not know "ALL" of the information as of just yet... i am planning to go up there soon to speak with the salesman to get a bunch of info (colors available, turn around time, pricing info, all details) and then i will be making a post for individuals who can PROMISE into this. that way i can take info to them and see what we can do about a group thing.

please look for a post in next couple of weeks
