Default Powder Coated TT2s

Just picked up my TT2s and I couldn't be more happy with the way they turned out. I didn't get to mount them yet but once I do I'll post more pictures. These were just a couple of pics I took before putting the wheels up. I'm going to give the lip a good polish and then take them to be mounted. Joeformula took care of everything for me and he did great work

The wheels did come out looking good. They'll look even better once they're mounted, they go along with all the decals on the car.

Have you seen Jesse's calipers? I think he goes by BillyRay on the board, he was up at our meet two months ago, he had the black SS with FM5's. We shot his calipers and rotors and they came out lookin' great.

Top Koat is in Kennedale Texas. You can go to their site and see more about them

They powder coated everything but the outer lip. The spokes inside and out are coated along with the inside of the wheels
