  • Wheel Repair

    Need my snowflakes repaired this year, figured i would get them repainted or powdercoated. Can they powdercoat dual colors?

    Color opinions anyone?

          I have never been a fan of color matched wheels. However I'm definitely game for seeing a Photoshop to prove me wrong.

            I think the platinum grey would work really well for color matching.

                  I like the polished lip/center color idea. Any other color ideas besides copper/gold? I think it would look too similar to Neil's PG GLI if i did that combination of colors. Maybe a satin silver powdercoat with polished lip?

                        Those wheels look sooooo much better with no black.

                          I'm liking it as well guys, i think i've decided what to do with them! I really like the polished/machine finished faces as well with just silver windows in the spokes and barrel. Essentially silver where the black currently is.

                            But silvers so... boring :P
                            If you go for the polished faces I agree with the above, colour match em!

                              I agree that the silver is kind of boring, I would definetly do a different colour.
