UHmmm...why on God's Green Earth would you paint your calipers and lug nutz that color if you don't live in North Carolina (even then it's a little :gay:). Don't mean to flame, I really don't, but dahyum.....

I am wondering how much does that cost, I mean to powder coat the rims? Because I am getting a real good deal on GT-S rims so I want to make them grey, gunmetal, or just plain black.

Yeah dude definitely want some info on this, I think those look BADASS (Minus the ghey blue). I'm about go go grab a can of black spray paint and go at it. So sick man. Hook it up with info.

You can powdercoat your wheels any color. If you are 100% sure you are powdercoating, why don't you first try painting them yourself. That is probably what I'm going to do first because most (almost all) places will charge you about $200-250 for powdercoating all 4.

It's not my car..
I've got that off from some Japan website...
It's gunmetal... I also don't like the blue color scheme...
If I had regular GTS rim then I'll probably powerder coat it..
Anyone wants to buy my Chrome GTS rim?? LOL

Hmm...I'd be willing to try painting them before I shelled out $250 or so on a powdercoating. Any recommendations on what paint to use? I want the gunmetal look.
