I think a matte black finish would look way better than glossy...

if it's on a black car, do it glossy...otherwise, flat black is nicer...never been partial to flat black on a car w/ black glossy paint

how can you powdercoat and get it glossy?? i thought all powdercoating would produce either a matt finish or a rough powdery finish. ANyhow i think matt is nice..... thats why my rims are matt black from the factory

Maybe...if that's the look you want. What's not "kool" is asking the ITR forum about powdercoating GS-R wheels.
You tell 'em George!
