Show off your powdercoated/painted LNF Stock Rims! Wanna see what some people did with them

 

i was just getting ready to put up a thread like this lol.... im painting mine gloss black tomorrow but could also use some ideas... all black or taping off some spots... lets see em guys

 

^x2 i was planning on a black and yellow rim this summer

 

anyone?
bump

 

bumpage for pics

 

bumpage for some sexyniss

 

come on boys i need somethin... 12 hours til decision time lol

 

what does it cost to get wheels powdercoated? And how durable is it? I know there are some people with this done cause I've seen it on here before.

 

it's pretty durable... correct me if im wrong guys but arent out stock TC wheels some sort of powder coating? and the cheapest i can find it around me is about $70-75/wheel but i just spend $450 on tires so it's no longer in the immediate budget. but looks much better than paint IMO unless alot of time and patience is used during painting

 

 

OMG FINALLY... thanks looks good. is that a flat black?

 

my guy just got his done for 300 super gloss black.. he comes on here once and a while ill see if he can post some pics.. he's got a black tc with the rims omg its so hot.. they are just as nice as the paint on his car

 

no it's a photoshop but I am getting them done gloss black here in a week!

 

That is member Rissa on this forum's car.

 

I like the all black look... i think im gonna go gloss black, leave the center caps except paint the bowties black and outline them with white... i'll post pics as soon as i get them done and you guys can let me know what ya think

 

Get it in flat instead.



Srsly

 

Yea Badblueberrys would look good flat black. That photoshop looks sexy as hell

 

There is a guy who chromed his... It looked really good.

 

^seen it. they do look good but he needs a drop

 

i like the chrome ones... kinda flashy for a black car though, and not to mention the $1k price tag lol

 

 

i think that's a photoshop in his sig, too. i have a buddy that had his painted gloss black. I wouldn't recommend doing any taping on those rims. I did it to my s/c stockers and it was soo freaking painful. i don't even think the end result was worth it. I'll see if i can get my friend to post some pics of his.

 

^Well i want to get mine done black with yellow on the insides. its gonna be flashy but i dont like the all black on the yellow car. But i wouldnt do that myself id pay to get it done. i have a bunch of photoshopes if you wanna see

 

well considering im putting my new tires on tomorrow, should i get up early and just do it so that i dont have to tape the tires off (considering i could care less if they get paint on them, or should i wait til i get the new rubber on and go through the painstaking process of taking the tires off?

ya lets see the photoshops cause you have caught my attention with this idea

 

it's much easier if you line the tires with newspaper, or even put gobs of vaseline on them. I used vaseline on mine, and it worked just fine. The only problem is that you have to wipe it off once you're done, and if you don't you get gobs of it all over your car.
