Default Powdercoated stockies on 06-08 TP

I tried searching but couldn't find any pics, has anyone with a TP had their stocks powdercoated and if so what color did you go with?

Pick something that goes well with YOUR car, because other members have the RIMS matched to their car.

I see that you have tinted headlights... perhaps go with a dark color like black or gunmetal.

i think your question is a bit too specific. you may find one or two pics of TP with powdercoated stockers if your lucky, but when i was on the lookout for pictures i didnt find many. Most of the ones i did find were black, which was good for me cause i have a black car Anyways i would say hyper gunmetal, i love that finish. Goodluck!

Here is the post I made a couple years back.

I forget what color I chose, gray metallic or something like that. I wanted to get liquid graphite (standard color on 08+) but it was crazy expensive because they say it's two colors layered (chrome + smoke).
