Exclamation I need your opinions on powder coating my 19's or NOT

Hi,

what do you guys think? would the gunmetal look good on DG coupe? i can't make my mind please help me to chose
Thanks.

PS: First picture is my car and the other 2 is the color of the rims i want.

You could easily fix your rims and paint them yourself. But if you are, definitely get them powdercoated. And get Clear corners.

I think you should do it. I think it would look 'bad to the bone'.

I like that they would be a bit different than all the others if you did.

Make sure they don't overheat your rims, if they are not careful they can cause your rims to become brittle and crack.
