Thumbs up Custom CL65 (W215) rims

So my OEM rims were all jacked up. I thought about getting another set of rims but decided to keep these and invest some money into getting them refinished; however, I didn't want the stock colors. I wanted something different since I wasn't going to get aftermarket ones. I dropped them off at Wheel and Tire Innovations in Metairie, LA and told them the ideas I had. I was thinking flat bronze with polished lip or maybe gunmetal with a black chrome lip. They took my rims and told me that they had some ideas and they would do it right. They won't let me look at the rims until they are done. I'm supposed to get them back today, so here's hoping they look awesome! I'll post pics when I get the car. Here's what they looked like before:

and here's one of the cars they did:

Here they are:



Gloss black with CF film and about 8 coats of clear. I think they look great!

Thanks. Saw yours. Damn wide!! Now all I need is a new hi-stall tq converter (called that place in chicago..they don't make them anymore) and a Renntech tune and I'll be set.
