Default Thinking about powdercoating my Bogarts

I'm thinking about having my Bogart D10's powdercoated black, not just the centers but the entire wheel. Not sure about how black yet, flat, semi, or wet. Whats ya'lls thoughts and can anyone photoshop them to see how it would look. Thanks!!!!

I don't think they'll look good on a pewter car. But you should powdercoat them black, then give them to me. I'm sure they'd look best on a red car

Black always gives it that meaner look..IMO Here's a thread someone else posted about doing them. Of course i like the (centers only) better but it would be sweet either way. https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-ti...pros-cons.html

Thanks! But I am gonna take the moldings off pretty soon, try to clean it up a little. Right now I'm thinking I'm gonna switch to an extended sunoco pin on hood because the "plans" for the new motor is single plane intake with 4500 tb, so I'll need it covered.

Yes side molding removal is a must! Just hope your doors have never been repainted I had to get the bottom of my passenger door done. A free mod that ended up costing me money
