Thought about it already.. If I had to break down the wheel just paint the face it wouldn't be worth doing bc the cost of each wheel to break down is roughly 150-300 a wheel and powder coating would be 100-150 a wheel.. So I have to find out tomorrow of
Would need to be broken down before anything... Besides I'm just trippin over the whole color match thing anyways...

if youre talking about the blue or green tint i dont think you could strip it.... i think the glass itself is stained... im not 100% sure but thats what it looks like to me... and if it is tint i would just leave it alone bc its hardly noticeable.. having tint stripped off cost as much to get tinted if not more...

I meant putting a strip of tint over that area, thats an option that my tint shop offered to me
