anyone ever contemplate powercoating their stock rims? last wkend i spent some time cleaning the brake dust off my 17" but now that there are clean i dont like the look :tongue:

esp having a CW i reckon a darker looking rim will provide a good contrast so i am thinking about coating the rims with a moderately dark shade of grey or even gunmetal...

how much do you guys reckon it will cost to do all 4?

I think Tiny_gti's friend powder coated his stock wheels (now sold?)

Tiny? Where abouts did he get it done and for how much?

He still has the wheels and may be keeping them now for track & drag duties, he got them done as Seven Hills Smash Repairs, his mate works there, top finish and as good as factory. Think he said about $100 per wheel.:thumbsup:
