Default VOLK GT-P's going DAP

ok so recently i picked up a set of VOLK GT-P's from a friend who is moving to las vegas.i got them for a steal and i am excited! well anyways....he had the center of the wheels powdercoated black which i dont like...,he kept the centers in his room and left the actual wheels in the garage where they just sat for years and years,so now iam going to refinish the wheels and I am going to paint the centers color matched to my car DAP o and by the way...iam not keeping the tires my yokohama's off of my old wheels are going on..so here are some pictures in order of start to current (they are almost done!)
PROCESS PICS...






powder coated...then sanded ready for paint










i'll have the other 2 wheels to this point by saturday..and will be painting the centers sometime this coming week....ill kepp H-T posted with more pix
