PowderCoating Rims Alright for the time being i think i am gonna put my HRE or Fikse rims on hold for now.
My question is. I was thinking of powder coating the center of my Torq Thurst 2 rims the NB to match my car and leaving the lip polished. Whats your thoughts on this?
Would anyone be able to Photoshop a TT 2 rim powdercoated NBM?

I saw in one of the Fast Ford Magazine's last night at the store a Lightning that was dark blue and had the dark blue painted centers on the rims and it look pretty good.
PS: I was looking at a ford magazine because my girlfriend is looking to get a 02 mustang gt soon. so please spare me

I think it would look good. I say go for it. If I had a dark car I would think about doing the same but since I have a red car I think it would look just plain ugly to have red wheels
