First photoshoot!! Fresh powdercoated wheels
First I gave her a bath, then clay bar, wax, polish, wax, polish, wax, polish...4 hours later, here are the results!! i love throwing the microfiber cloth on the hood and watch it glide off like its not even touching it =) Let me know what you guys think! Just got oem wheels powdercoated gloss black by marco at performance wheel repair. He did an amazing job. Had some pretty bad curb rash on three of the wheels, he repaired them, then powdercoated, and had everything done in 5 hours. 420 dollars for everything. Amazing. only complain I have is i think he might have overtightened my tpms because I had to get it replaced, was leaking air. (covered under warranty)

I am in Socal, but instead I went with a black chrome finish b/c they offered a core swap with the wheels. I am not too stoked with the finish on them, so at some point I may powder coat them.
at the very least, I have to fix some curb rash and get the rims on my girl's 328 refinished, so this is looking like an option.
