cannot say I am a fan of that pattern

...but nice car mate

do you have any powdercoated rim pictures?

I am thinking it will either look hot or look totally weird..

Well with a 3 way TIE and all the comments.. i sat here today Suckin on a Jimmy can or 4 looking at my car and i think the Satin sets off the car.

so i think i'll stick with it... NOW!

does anyone know where the hell i can get my Wheels Re-Satined? or is it a Paint or is it a P/Coat or wha.... im going to ask my Powdercoater tomorrow if he knows or can do it or maybe come out with a coat thats very simular.....

i still want to fix them up and do somthing with them... cos the guy who had it before me was Ruthless with gutters...

At least you have rims that can be repaired easily... Last owner was ruthless on my 19s too, but they're a machined lip. Makes repairs a bit tricky I think.

Yep, Not Umpossible.. just need someone with a lathe bigenough to turn rims and an operator who knows how to do it.......

Im just gonna tig up the skuffs n sand then clean and run a Porcoline Buffer over em... just need to work out how to re-coat them.... im sure its like a powdercoat.... tis definatly close to it.. i'll pound my p/coater for answers tomorrow morn when im hung over as **** pickin up the switchboards i was supposed to fit out today!!!

lol!

Yeah I'll have to ask a proper rim repair joint about my stupid gutter smashes... hell I shouldn't complain too much, got the rims for an absolute bargain purely because one was badly kerbed :)
