Powder Coating Stock Rims - C450

I think I'm going to powder coat my stock rims. I'd rather them be all black, instead of the way they are.

Question: where can I get the middle caps all in black?

I'm going to have them powder coated the same color as the Porsche GT3

We have stock on the gloss black cap with the chrome star, and we also have the black lug covers, but some powder coat finishes are done in a matte or semi gloss, so you may want to also check if the dealer has the similar caps you have now in black instead of blue.

PM me if have any other questions.

Hope this info helps!

The black with the Chrome looks good. Do you have them in all black?

I'm thinking gloss to match the other glossy parts on the car. Roof, mirrors, etc.

Is it worth powder coating the stock, or just buy all new rims and tires?

Did you ever powder coat your wheels?
