Need pictures to help me decide!!!
My 19 OEM wheels were ruin by my local car wash. I have a Silver/LP 2005 coupe and I'm wanting to go with a gunmetal powder coat. The place I'm having do the work told me to check out the color of the Acura Type S wheels, maybe too dark for what I'm wanting not too sure though. I was able to see the new GTR wheels from the showroom at Nissan and that color may work.

Please any pictures you can send will help!
Thanks

 

If you found help to your request please send me more info. The G I got has chrome OEM rims and I'm not feeling the chrome unless my G was black.

 

Just do black.

 

Black looks great.

Have seen some fellow forum members who have also powdercoated the OEM 19's.

Ive seen gunmetal, gold and black. All which look great.

Gunmetal might look great on your silver.

 

Painting them black is stupid, IMO.

I prefer gunmetal over black.

 

How much does it cost to get your rims powdercoated? And how long does it usually take.

 

I was quoted $145 wheel to take back to original specs. Same price for any new color. They said it would take no more than 2 days. They will come to my house say Monday morning, take the wheels while leaving my car on jacks and then return on Tuesday afternoon with the completed wheels

I think I'm going to try and find a color sample to match the Nissan GTR and get the rims in that color


I'll post pictures when I make the plunge. I will more than likely have them start next week

 

$145/wheel is very expensive.

 

yeah I notice the $145 was exspensive compare to what I have been reading on some of the other post.

From what I could find here in Houston $145 was average. They have work on my wheels before and fixed my girls wheel on her Volvo and they did a really good job. I couldn't even tell it was damage.

If you know of places that might have a store here in Houston let me know. Seems like most of them are base in Cali.

 

Out here the big shops will do them for $60-80 a wheel.

 

glendale powder coating on Grand ave and 50th will do a whole set of wheels for 180

 

gunmetal will look best imo

 

i was thinking of getting my oems painted gun metal. where is a good place in s.cal.

dont meant to thread jack.

 

paint u can do that yourself, it might be better if u powder coat though
