I liked the old paint job , but the new really works on that car. looks killer. ... just have the wheels powder coated silver to match.




I thought about having them powdercoated....can they powdercoat them to look shiny?

Nice looking paint job, like the blue & silver and graffics , yes the wheels did go along with the other paint colors, just another added expense to make your ride just right. Now to choose the next front wheels, There sure allot to choose from. The lightest ones are now the every body has them wheels.

Thanks for all the positive feedback! What do you guys think I should do about the front wheels? Powdercoat them? Leave them alone? Or????

On the wheels...remove the old color then polish them...then have them transparent powder coated....I had these wheels done on custom bike I built...they did the wheels and the triple trees...looked like green chrome in the sun..
click on the pics to make them bigger.

That looks really nice! Very tastefully done.
I do think it would look much better to remove the gold finish and polish them. It would go better with the paint scheme.
