I'm sure they can do a different colored lip but it will cost you more because they'll have to spend time masking the wheel. If you do a single color, they'll just sandblast, and coat them. Pretty simple job. My guess is that cost will probably double for two colors. But don't quote me on that.

White? WTF Wes. Go crash a rally car in the snow! Just kidding, don't hate me.

37 a wheel is even better, good to know Riley, thank ya. And I was planning on the black, the guy that photoshopped that for me on here just put all 3 pictures as one picture... I'm not doing the red or the green or the pink (no offense Evan). I just wanted the newbie opinions on that black. Anyone else have opnions on what color/colors might look good (including painting the lip a different color etc)?

BTW Box Rocket, those look uber (I can say that cuz I have a German car) hawt on the black. Any more views that show more of the car too?

We should have a stock wheel powder coating party!

I'll be doing my stockers soon too since they're my winter rims and they'll be coming off soon. I originally just painted them. I liked the color, so I'm going to have Extreme PC do them right finally. Here's my boring stock wheels.



lower that thing

Here's one. These are pretty old. I've at least changed my taillights since these were taken.

Yes I know it could use a drop, just haven't decided on one yet, and my money always seems to go elsewhere.

Yeah well, those are pretty hot, easily the second best if not best colored stockers I've seen. (JID had like a dark brownish bronze color that was really cool too)

Back to the powdercoating, the few friends that have gone to Extreme Powdercoatings have had their wheels back the same day if they dropped them off first thing in the morning.

Hard to beat $37/wheel at Steel Coatings. Where are they located? Might be worth a trip down south if I need to.

For those of you coming on Saturday, I probably won't have my gold wheels on the car. If you're like me you have to put a car to the name before a face to the name since I've never met any of you. I'll probably be running my cheapo Enkei summer setup on Saturday vvvv

Funny, I tried the Bronze Duplicolor wheel paint before the gold. I didn't like the color. Much to "copper" looking for my tastes.

Here's my bronze ones that only lasted a couple weeks before I painted the gold.


sorry for pic whoring.....

Haha, jeez I like that too. Jared's (JID) were a whole lot darker though, like almost black. And pic ***** away. Car:Face is how we all do it I think, even in meeting people not on EvoM "Oh, she's the one that drives the Civic, and you have the Accord, and he drives the Jeep, gotcha."

I don't know how much I'll be on here the rest of the week so once and for all......

MEETING AT THE PARKING LOT IN PROVO CANYON AT 11:00AM ON SATURDAY. Hopefully pulling out of there by 11:30 at the latest. That way I can still have a bit of the afternoon and get back for the crap I've got going on that evening.

-k bye.
