Default Pics of powdercoat rims

After washing the Vette over the weekend, I thought it was finally clean enough to take some pics of the car and rims to show you guys.
No making fun of the Christmas lights on the house. It did snow last week here in Steamboat.

Nice, white cloud.
Wheel color is like gunmetal grey?




Might wanna swap out the left front with the right rear.

I paid about $250. It was a special offer.

I have these rims but the PO custom painted the inner blades with the body color...looks pretty slick especially going down the road...

I like the powder coat you got going there...sweet! Might get mine redone as they are looking their age...where'd you get em done?

My idea is to get another set of wheels to use while the originals are powder-coated the original color. My problems include color, shipping, and lastly the cost. My Vette is not a show car but the wheels are old and I want to freshen them up.

Thanks. Done at Nelson Powdercoaters, Nelson, New Zealand. Shipping might be too costly for ya (haha).
