I like it. Looks really good! Now just paint the calipers red and you will be set.

Thanks, and yes the calipers definitely need to get painted red!

Very nice!! How much and who did it. Get the G2 Caliper paint. By far the best and doesnt change color.

WOW, good job. Looks pretty sweet. Nice choice on the matte black versus the gloss black.

$175 a wheel. I did it the hard way: took wheels to tire shop to get tires and valves removed, took wheels to powder coater, then to painter, then back to tire shop. $25 to dismount/remount/balance, $75 to powder coat, $75 to paint. Turns out the custom wheel shop that painted the red could have done it all for me, and probably cheaper, but I didn’t know about them when I started. Wheel Techniques www.wheeltechniques.com

And thanks, I'll pick up some G2 paint.

No clear and fingers crossed. I guess if it survived mounting the tire back on it's gotta be pretty tough. And yes, I'm definitely thinking of putting black stripes on it! :D

Those looks really nice. Thats what I was thinking of doing to mine but was not sure how they would come out. Know I can see that it will look nice.
