Finally got my wheels back from powder coat.. I must say they look awesome. The company did a superb job.. very very impressed with their work and the price was unbeatable compared to other businesses in my area. Final price was $360 and that included all tax, labor, materials. For that price they dismounted my tire from rim, Sandblasted, fixed curb rash on one rim, prepped, powdercoated, put new valve stems, remounted tires, and high speed balanced. Other companies where charging 75-95 a rim without tire removal/reinstall/balancing. Im very happy with the turnout. I also painted my brake calipers black to match the car, and it contrasts with the wheels great. Decided to polish the center cap, rather than powdercoating it white. It was a toss up between, black or polished but I think the polish goes good with my lug nuts and valve cap. Next is making time to trim the crash bar and re-fit my front mount! Let me know what you all think... Im going to get some better photos outside in the sun tomorrow hopefully.
I like the white with the black, it makes it stand out a lot. Mine are white to but just painted white lol I didn't have the money to get them powder coating. But I like yours, they look good!
My car has an oil leak to coming from unknown territories, hopfully I'll be able to run it down when I pull my engine out to do the build

Thanks. I didn't really have the money to get them done either but the old paint was starting to look bad I was going to rattle can them white myself, but I wanted a professional finish. It was worth every cent. It looks real good with the white decals, and badges.
You have bigger issues than an oil leak sir
Well if I go pick that engine up tomorrow I'll be closer to fixing everything. Hopfully they're not asking to much for it
Yes I will be there, I'm probably leaving my house around 8

I'll probably be at c&c by 730ish lol
Mmm to early for me, I might leave my house by 7:30 if I'm lucky, I like my sleep lol
are you gonna use extended bolts for the intake mani? I don't feel the stock ones are long enough to good torque on with my 505 and nsn spacers. I plan on redoing them next spring if I keep it
