I'm considering p-coating my stock wheels like a high gloss metallic black, I'm not sure what color to Pcoat my calipers.. Until I found theses pics.. What do you guys think? I'm also unsure how my stocks will look p-coated..

i want to paint or powder coat my calipers the same color.

Same here. I think the blue would pop on my white, maybe even a brighter blue.

How do you guys feel about my stocks in black?

I've tried to google black stock e63 wheels.. I can't find any. Think im just gonna wing it and hope for the best.

HeissRod

Love it

I'm not a fan of all black wheels as the wheel and tire tend to run together into one blob of black.

FromM3toAMG

Sure if you go with flat black, which I don't plan on doing.

HeissRod

Gloss or black doesn't matter. Either your wheels match when the tires are dirty or when you shine the tires. :p

On a side note, I had my Mustang wheels painted for $400, instead of powdercoated, and they have held up beautifully over the years. No chips whatsoever.

I'm going to have my wheels and calipers coated for probably less then $400, they won't chip that easy.

HeissRod

That's a great price

I always think out of the box. Flat bronze wheels with Lamborghini green calipers

It must be a PITA to clean the calipers eh

FromM3toAMG

Thats pretty good pricing for $400. I got my HRE 19s powder coated and cost $700 for everything. Dismount old tire, break down rims, PC, mount/balance new tires.

hyperion667

cost for me was 400: an excellent job too, they still don't have a scratch to this day! had mine done in a satin finish.......
then I bought some glossy's from HRE which I like a lot more.........
something to consider would be the finish..........

good luck!

Thanks for the compliment
