They are 19' alstadt type 1 2 piece wheels.... I had the centercaps painted black, they couldnt powdercoat them since thier plastic, but decided the car looks more aggressive without the centercaps....

Did you paint all of them? I'd like to see it with the silver centercap, just for comparison purposes!

Did you have to separate the 2-piece wheels before you do the powder coating? Or they just mask out the outer rims?
