That looks good. I might get flamed here but I was actually thinking of doing the same thing to my MR BBS wheels.

Had mine done at Liquid Powder Coats in PA

The color is Misty Black.

$280 for all 4 with some curb rash repair.

Sorry for the big pics.

^^^ Those "Misty Black" wheels look AMAZING!!! Please post pics up with them on the car if you haven't done so already. Those are exactly what I want mine to look like. We just don't have any good powdercoating shops around here. Could they order that color and do it here?

I have pics on the car, but not on an EVO X. I had them on my 2009 Mazdaspeed3.

I'm sure the color could be ordered from any powder supplier.

Sorry for the threadjack.
