looks alright... A little 'dull' i think....

The shade of black on the rims looks 'duller' than the car.

personally, i would of gone painted to get a nice colour/tone match.

Didn't want to start a new thread as it is related.

Quick question,

Is it normal to have deep lines on the diameter of the rims ?

Apparently from what I was told, the line on the diameter of the rims is because the rims were hung using a wire.

Just wondering if any of you who have had their rims powder coated experience the same thing as mine.

Although the lines are covered once the tyres are installed, I am quite concerned as the lines are fairly deep.
