Thinking of sending the fronts and rear wheels and having them powdercoated flat black. Also plan on doing the 5" turbo exhaust pipe and innercooler piping. What do you guys think?

IMHO...leave it as it is..everyone is jumping on the black wheel deal,and it's going to be too common. The car looks great as is,I wouldn't change anything.

I would coat the exhaust and intercooler pipe but leave the wheels alone. Everyone is going to black wheels so to be to many.

also.
Black is so boring. Ask any photographer and he'll tell you how poor of picture a black car takes on the track.
Especially a race car, because the track is black and the car will never pop with a black background.
Flat black is for the guys who have no creativity.

I like them. Why? Because half the people that have posted on here do not, so that means you going to have something different and yet still look nice.
Why not get the black aluma-star 2.0 and sell yours.
Interested in having you car wired? Drag car, street car, EFI swap?

not mine, but the ones like yours already in black. This is the 17" version.
If you dont like them, its alot easier to R&R wheels than it would be if you were painting the car.
Good luck either way...
