    I was going to keep them orig color, but i got them repaired it would have cost more money and the powerder coat was only 80$ a wheel including the repairs and for the 2 coats so i said why not and they mounted my new tires which was the whole reason i even decided to get eh curb rash repaired!

    they have more of a shine in the light

    got em done at http://www.metalworksplace.com/

    It really works with your cars color. Its one of those combo's I wouldn't of pegged as working.

    I would consider painting your rear view mirrors the same color to tie in the effect more.
