    Default Colored Mags?

    I'm thinking of doing something a bit different and getting colored mags instead of chrome ones....

    Does anyone know of anywhere that does? and/or any websites?

    Cheers

    heheheh, im going to paint my own, just as easy.

    make sure you clean them really well with some wax and grease remover, there are products designed for wheel painting.

    What state are you in (not drunk etc, where you live ).

    I know a place in SA that can powder coat any colour you want.


    I had mine done, cost $50 per wheel, and that included getting sent to a 3rd party to get acid bathed to removed the old paint (the gold HSV colour)


    I did give the guy the wheels without tyres in boxes tho, so that may have kept the costs down.

    Heres the final product (although black technically isn't a colour )
