Powder Coated Style 63's...

FSETH · #1 12-31-2009, 01:08 PM

Anyone here paint their sport package wheels gray? I seem to like the look of mine better after they are covered in brake dust and it got me thinking... either never wash them, or get them powder coated.

Appreciate the photo. It is a little hard to tell exactly what they look like. I was thinking a light gray or gunmetal type color, but this is a step in the right direction. Thanks!

Thanks for the offer. I will have to take a few new photos of the X. Old computer crashed a few months back (didn't back up a damn thing) and every photo of the X went with it. Anyway, after I wash it later this week I will post a photo or two in this thread. I had to go down a dirt driveway a few times over the holidays and the X looks like it was really off-roading or something.

Thanks for the pic. Cant tell if it is a little dark, or just the photo. I was thinking something similar to this color. I stole this photo from another member. I believe the color is ferric gray. It would be a subtle change, but I think it looks better than straight silver.
