New color powdercoat on stock SS wheels ...well, I havent seen this color on a stock rim yet anyways. The prior owner of this SS used some pretty horrid looking spray paint over the stock finish, so that crap had to go. Wanted a finish a little different from most stock 4th gen rims, but still something that looked OEM. Avoiding straight silver and the common dark grey, I tried to get close to the midnight silver on the 2010-12 Camaro RS pkg. 20" wheels. I think these turned out gorgeous. Won't have mounted pics for a week or so. I have to have a shop match this color as close as they can with normal paint for the center caps, then have oem sized black/red SS decals from Brent Franker( these are going on a black real SS )
What do you guys think?

Thanks .
It was a local shop that did it. He had hundreds of colors to choose from. This is a pc called superchrome, which was the basecoat. The top pc was a darker tinted clear. Got the exact effect I was going, the areas the light hits really pop well and the curved recess areas shadow out dark. Further, the surface looks like a metal rather than metallic paint.
Will definately have pics up once there mounted. Tire rack closes at 4, so its impossible to get there thru the week with work.
