Can I see a pic of yours?

We all obviously do not like the same things...Some of us try custom colors and some of us just make comments. Luckily I can powder coat my wheels as many times as I want so soon they will be a different color.

I've found that with colors that push the envelop you will have days that you love it and days that you question doing it. Since it is not permanent I'd go for it.

How do you do yours, plastidip? I definitely want to retain my original finish but be able to change it occasionally

A good friend of mine powder coats so I go to him. I pay $125 per wheel.

That being said, I thought about dipping but so far I haven't seen a finish that I like. They all seem to look on the matte side. If you want to keep your original finish I would dip but keep in mind that there's a chance of eating the clear coat (according to my buddy). There's also hydrodipping as an option. My friend does that too I'm just not sure how it comes off.

A friend of mine did a photoshoot for me using pro quality equipment. Here are some samples. This thread is supposed to be my single best shot, but I honestly can't just pick one.

Standard kit here. Cannot be deleted when ordering. You get them whether you want them or not

Visually I prefer the car without them to be honest but they are useful from time to time in Sydney.
