Default Need help with ITR wheel color!!!!

Listen guys, I just bought a complete ITR suspension and gunmetel wheels from a guy off ebay (screen name vwpride12) any way, when he finally after three weeks sent the wheels, there were powdercoated focking silver!! I have contacted him and paypal, and so far, no luck getting results. I have seen several posts about touch up paint color for the gunmetal wheels, but I need a spraypaint in a can that I can spray all 4 wheels. anty help would be appreciated. (unless someone wants to trade for gunmetal) thanks!

oh yea, i have pictures that he sent me before i bought them, but thats not what he sent me. and thats why I think i have a case with paypal, but i am not getting my hopes up. as far as being powdercoated right, they do look very good, but there are silver not gunmetal. if i wanted silver, then i would have been very pleased, becaus ethey look good. if someone is interested, i will send pics. let me know.

If you just spent $1600 for the look, then you ripped yourself off. You could have spent $1600 on a great suspension setup, along with some decent rims and great tires. Well you might have to spend a little more, but you get my point. IMO, $1600 isn't worth it to go 5-lug. But to each his own...

no one is ever going to know what the hell to look for. If you dont' know what your looking at it won't look special. kinda like when a girl says your type r looks just like my gs. you kinda just laugh and say... yeah sure.
unless you are an enthusiat no one will care.
