Default finally got powercoated vs-xx and f-sport bbk
Hello CL~ I had gold 20" vs-xx and I got bored with that color so I changed color on my vs-xx.
Wheelflip did good job~ It's black chrome powercoat.







Getting bbk installed...











What do you guys think? I think black chrome looks better than gold~ I like gold but I got bored fast :s
