after sandblasting:



after powdercoating:




you want to get such rims in ANY color you like....just look at the link in my sign

 

Looks good. Not the color I would have picked, tho.

 

I tried my best to match oem gm...but it is hard from telling the color of an pic I got. And the color looks a bit better than on the pics here. Man, powdercoat is realy smooth, like the Lotus flower where no dust can stick.

 

nice job on the wheels . . .
but isn't GM a bit darker ?

 

I think there closer to CW then they are too GM....but it does look smooth..

 

at first I thought you just primered them Came out clean though
How much do you want for a used set of rims?

 

A darker gm would be my favorite color too (like the OZ F1 cup is) but I tried my best to match oem gm color according to a pic, kinda hard and for sure not equal. I have never seen oem gm with my own eyes tho.

I want 700usd shipped for a set of used rims and powedercoated in any color like white, gm, black, bronze, etc......

 

pm'ed you

 

Turned out very nice

 

what is the difference in powder coating... BTW it looks sweet and clean

 

powder coating is a powder like the name says. The rims get static loaded and the powder get sticky on the rims in every place. It get heated up to 200 degree C and that was it.

PMed you back

 

That does look more like a Dull Primer Grey, Gun metal is more like a Graphite Looking Color!

they don't look like gunmetal at all...should be metallic...

they look nice and all, but they are not gunmetal. Gunmetal is darker and also has better reflective qualities to it, i hope the buyer relizes wut they are getting because if i was buying those and i asked for gunmetal and ended up with that, i would sure be pissed.

oh well, I rather had made them like this way.

 

sorry OT, are the euro R wheels the same as JDM ITR wheels? just curious.

 

no the euro wheels are 15inch an not 16's so they are lighter an look better on the R IMO

 

but theyre the same design? thanks btw

 

Yes they are same design.

 

nice job, wheels look good

 

They look like poo poo...

 

Nice results.

 

damn...if u could get those rims in that OZ GM color i'll buy!

 

I like iut too. Just nor sure about the color either. Its like dirty white rims all the time

I would have made them between GM and black
