Might powdercoat my rims, what do you guys think?
 

I'm thinking of getting my rims powder coated this summer after i get my car repainted. Heres what I cam up with so far in the chop I did. I want a black rim with a silver lip what do you guys think honestly? Oh yh and don't mind the tinted headlights I got bored and choped those as well as a drop and window tint but just look at the rims and the color of the car. Thanx

damn nice ass job

:tup: When I get around to it, I'mma do the same ;)

You on 215/45's ???

Heyy you have the same rims as me, 'cept mine are black glossed

switch it up, black lip with chrome hub, lol, it would be unique!

If he did that you wouldnt notice the black lip because of the color of the tires...

doesn't matter... people would have to notice the lip because the rims would just be floating... if they didn't...

i like. good stuff.

looks good do it

how about bronze? that would look nice on those rims.

IMO the rims you have would probably look good with one color.

looks good

looks good how much to powdercoat ur rims i paid 260.00 and they stripped it down to the aluminum

^ I'm getting a quote from a local shop to powder coat but otherwise I was going to paint them in the paint booth where my dad works with some heavy duty gloss black paint they use to paint parts for machines. They are jus summer rims so they're not exposed to a lot of elements like road salt. The tires are 205/40/17. Thanks for the input! i'm gonna do it for sure just not sure if i'll powdercoat

how much does that rougly cost to powdercoat silver to black on 16''s

It depens if your keepen it for a long time or a short time cause I painted mines and it came out nice and I painted it a candy blue color and its banging hot try to post pics asap aights.............

you'd look like every other blacked out civic out there.


I'm with him on this one to be honest.

Here is my before and after on my Rays GGames. Were gunmetal, had them painted Gloss Black.

Thanks. Front window has 20% down the whole thing and a limo (approx 7%) strip on the top. All other windows are 7% as well.

Nice attempt, but that looks a lot more brown then bronze. If it ended up looking like that, i'd say go wtih gunmetal. *blah*
