These were a special build for GMMG but I understand now that if you call AR they may make you a set. Only other way is to have them painted or powdercoated.

Phone number is 877 648 9500. website is www.tradeunion.com Theyre featured in the new issue of Camaro Performers, dunno if youve seen it yet, but they took the grape of wrath and put them on it, looks sweet. Hope this is of some help.

I think they call that color Black Chrome if it's powder coated.

i like the ttII's and the smoothies when they are both polished, but its TTII's hands down when the center is gunmetal, because the center cap is still polished.

I was toying with the idea of black centers. Here's one with spinners added. They are of course, optional:

Joe, do you have any pics?

Also, since your in the know on powdercoating, how can it be removed?
chemically, sanding etc...?

Joe, dumb question, but is the "black chrome" just the color of powdercoat? I'm days away from sending my TT2's to get coated, anyone know of a place say in Texas that powdercoats? I've been quoted $80 but the place is in Indiana. Thanks

The ones that are grey in the center are dull. The look ok but the shiny ones look better. Plus the color is different.
