Default oem wheels powdercoated in Dallas

Just got my oem wheels powdercoated. The center cap was painted with 99 cent Krylon spray paint. Cost per wheel was $45 each. If you are in Dallas area...give this company a call...it was an excellent job.

I'm not sure if black lugnuts would look better or not on black wheels but they look great on the comp greys. Theese are Mcgards and are much better quality than oem....food for thought.

hahaha....our cars look almost identical with the exception of the wheels and the Z51 package. Where you at in Dallas? Never seen your car. I've only seen a small # of VY C6's rolling around.

that is a great price. At $45 each, did they strip them down to bare metal, or coat over the existing paint?

Fast stuff's quote is more in line with industry pricing
