Question Opinions on powder coated wheels?

The Lenso F-Body Wheels are really starting to grow on me.

But their just a plain finish and nothing special. I would either have to have the wheels dipped in chrome or powder coated white. I don't see many F-Bodys running around with powder coated wheels so I was thinking this would look a little different. But how good would this look? Powder coating can look kind of ricey sometimes and that is something want to stay away from.

I think they look good the way they are! Gunmetal gray with a polished lip. That's a great look!

Yeah, I 2nd that, grey powdercoat with a polished lip looks hella nice man.

Maybe if you wanted them painted/powdercoated white, that'd look cool, I'm really kinda out on Non-OEM style (SS, Z06) wheels in chrome.

Don't yell at me though, I know there are some out there that look good, but generally, I don't care for them!

Thanks, and good luck in your search!

So guys what do you think? I got a friend to do some photoshopping and I told him what I wanted powder coated. This is what the rims would look like when I'm done with the powder coating. Any opinions on the matter?
