Murdered my wheels today
It was raining here for weeks straight, finally got a few hours without sprinkles. Hit the grille too.



I love it.

Looks great but satin or gloss would make them look even better
Painted, powdercoated or plati-dipped?

I was talking to Tony (tbal) last week and he sent me pics of his plasti-dipped stockers on a bimmer. It was just a matter of rain stopping for me to do this.
I know it'd look better satin/gloss and I'd do a coat over it if I could but cant beat the matte for what it is. Also a little more low-key too. I've plasti-dipped a grille of mine before, but it amazed me on wheels.

Thank you. Im thinking of doing the cf diffuser and the cf front lip which im awaiting in black instead of cf also now.Maybe a strip of cf on the rear trunk spoiler. Have had a black rear window spoiler sitting around forever, still havent pulled the trigger.

looks great! now you definitely gotta hit the star with paint. i like that look better than any of the flat badges (but i used powdercoat because i didn't think paint would hold up to road debris).

Will do, I have high hopes for it, if anything I could always do a quick spray.
