I had the rims powdercoated here... http://www.americanpvd.com/
Ask for Ron and tell him Charlie sent you...

They are done in a black chrome finish. The actual name of the color is Black Diamond. It was expensive though, $150 per wheel, $10 per center cap, but they look extremely nice. Im very happy with the finished product...

I will post better pics of the wheels when the sun comes out.

i hate to send them out though thats more $$$ for me

i bought a set of 18" g-spiders i think im gonna sell and pick up some g35 (i been debating between these 2 rims for bout a year)

they are powder coated by Prismatic Powders, Color is Winter Bronze number PMB-1990 / Metallic. ALMOST the Sport Design color. looks beautiful but i gotta get one repowder coated as it was damaged and i had it repaired and now it needs new powder coating

well i just ordered mine today....its kinda silly though i talked to bert twice and jamie in sales and i got 3 different prices from two different people.

they wanted $16 each,then it changed to $15 each and then finally i got them for $13 each plus a $10 shipping charge....

now they just gonna have to get sent to be powder coated with the rims

I just picked up a set of G35 18x8 7-spokes... so this source for Infniti-compatible Lexus center caps is invaluable.
