^You've missed my point.

The stock finish is powdercoat.... so powdercoating them would be no different, you're just changing the color (or for that matter, if the finish was messed up, you could restore them to factory finish)

MissouriG35, I will promise not to paint the LMGT4's as long as you buy my SF-Winnings.

Speaks the truth. Don't powdercoat forged wheels unless they are low temp curable. The heat from powdercoating will somewhat 'undo' the strength associated by forging.

However, I would love to see polished lips with a brushed face with the NISMO logo.
