  • Gunmetal RS4 replicas

    Hey guys,
    Im pretty into the whole RS4 wheel thing but I dont think it would look quite right on a black car. My question to you is how/where would I go to have rims re-coated in a gunmetal color..and does anyone happen to have pics (doesnt have to be RS4, just nice gunmetal rims on a black car)

    thanks!

    theres one place in calgary that does wheel repair/refinishing. its called alberta tire and wheel repair, its in the NE just off deerfoot and the guy that runs it is called Santos.

    refinishing is usually $100-150 a wheel including remounting of tires, so instead of using the OEM colour I guess you can just tell them to use a darker shade for the same price.

      I would maybe look at powdercoating places and see how much it would be to get them powdercoated in gunmetal.

                Yeah i figured they would..I mean, Im going with an all black theme on the ride so the BBS LM's that I wanted to get (after I re-finance the car hahaa) wouldnt really work...although, they really would work and look pimp because they are BBS LM's....ahh, Ive got some time before I can afford rims anyways, just getting ideas

                  guess you'll have to get the gunmetal equivelent to the LM's... the BBS RG-R's

                            hell yeah, although i still fail to see the point of putting an audi badge on a vw. thats like putting a hemi badge on a 2.0 neon. some people are just retards I guess


                            EDIT: I should point out that this is different if you have actual audi rims. not replicas like that douche
