It looks like it but hard to tell. For $200 I couldn't be happier. They also allow you to choose any color you want...

Some people really know how to keep business a going concern. Volume and repeat business is what mints great money, not a few and far between good deals.

They look great. I refinished mine myself. I won't do that again. They turned out great, but a ton of work.

They do look great.


Fifty150hs, how did you refinish yours?


I had been looking into that bavauto wheel refinishing kit before they closed their door.

Purplecty, You inspired me to begin checking around here for powder coating services. One came back at $95 per wheel. Still need to check with 2 others.

Purplecty 08-26-2020 08:46 PM
$95 isn't a bad deal either...

absolutezero273c 08-26-2020 08:49 PM
But I liked $50 much better.

You can still get the kit through ECS, they bought them. I used the silver paint and I got 2K gloss clear which is great stuff. They turned out great, but tons of sanding, filling of dings, etc. It was at least 8 hours a wheel.

Thanks for that Fifty150hs. I was unaware that ECS purchased Bavauto.


And 8 hours. Wow!
