Powder Coating

ljs · 08-09-2011, 04:45 PM

I'm currently running Miro 942's I'm happy with them but I have the original wheels that came with the car and I been thinking about getting them powder coated flat black.

(I have a silver Z4 roadster) so I'm hoping the flat black wheels will look cool..

Has any one powder coated their wheels? Do they easily get scratch/last a while?

Here is a pic of the wheel..

Chrome on BMWs should be a felony.
