I am working on some OEM Ray's but I am doing the spokes in a gun metal with a polished lip. Now I have polished the frame on my motorcycle but these have become a pain in my ****. I think I am going to find somebody to powdercoat them and finish polishing the lips. I just don't have the time anymore

Looks awesome... I've got quite a bit of curb rash on my wheels and I was dreading having them "professionally" re-done. Luckily I have another set of wheels I can toss on when I've got a slow weekend sometime that I can tackle this.

They look great. Inspired me to refinish the set I have sitting in my shed once the weather gets warm.
