I posted a thread a while ago about how I got my rims powder coated gun metal grey and how I thought the finished product was very good. My rims were very curb rashed look absolutely terrible and I brought it to a guy who grinded/ sanded down the curb rash then sand blasted the rims, then finished it off with a powdercoat. Did it all for $350 which IMO is very reasonable.

Anyways heres some pics of my car.

Looks nice... do you have any close-up pictures?

why did you not powdercoat the center cap?

stevejones

Because its plastic. And personally, I really like how its a different color, kinda makes the rims "pop". I thought about spray painting them the same grey color but once I seen the two colors together i think it looks good.

IMO it's not even an option, you gotta do the center caps. Here are mine in Satin.

First poster said $350 but i noticed his center caps aren't painted not sure if that makes a difference. I paid $400 OTD. I would expect a couple dollars more in NorCal.

Looks good but the center caps need to be color matched

Color matched to the color of the powder coat, yes.
