Powder coated SS/TC wheels

Here is what a SS/TC looks like with powder coated wheels. It took them 5 days to strip and powder coat the wheels "Steel Grey w/Ghost Clear." Center caps aren't on yet because it haven't got time to find the right paint color yet.

I think it looks beatiful, looks like it matches the brembo's color. Have you had any ideas on the headlights? (maybe powdercoating/painting the same colour as the rims?)

Heat'em up and take them apart...then just find a color that similar and spray paint them bitches.

Tons of members have painted there own headlights.
