love the fabulous kit on your 3GS I just think the wheels would look 1000x better if they were in the brushed finish instead of white

Thanks...again, I'm On The Fence About The Rims That's Why I Can Understand And Agree With Both Parties.

I Did Want To Get Them Brushed But Was Not Sure If Powder Coated Wheels Can Get Brushed And Don't Know Any Good Shops In South Fl Who Would Do A Good Job.

Any Recommendation?

Thanks For The Comments Again Folks.

I'm on the fence with the white wheels too, but the car looks nice overall.

I think the white on flint may come off a little better on a small sporty car, like a IS or so.

Either way the car and kit look really nice and to you for taking a risk!

Thanks For The Comments Again Folks.
I was thinking of changing the color on my wheels and asked the folks at Goodroads. They recommended a shop but I forgot the name. Just call them, speak with any salesperson and they will give you the name of the shop they use.
To add to my previous comment....I likie the wheels as is but it isn't something I could live with long term. I'd recommend color matching to the car.

THANKS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION. I WAS THINKING OF CALLING THEM TOO BUT I HAD FRIENDS IN THE PAST THAT WENT TO GOODROADS FOR REPOLISHING AND PAINTING AND THEY CHARGED AN ARM AND A LEG. BUT I WILL TRY. CAN'T HURT TO ASK RIGHT.

YEAH...PROBABLY NOT LIVING WITH THE WHITE WHEELS MUCH PAST THE END OF THE YEAR. SO BRUSH ALUMINUM NOT DOING IT FOR YA? IT IS EITHER THAT OR LIKE YOU SUGGESTED, COLOR MATCH THE RIMS TO THE CAR.
