Re: pics of the rims blacked out

I looked at and called up a couple places and they were saying 80-100 a wheel with sandblasting. Then I found a place called chemtron in Danbury, Ct and he only charged me 65 a wheel. I was like okay done here they are. Turn around time is only a couple days too with him. I'll take pictures tomorrow and send them to you. remind me if I don't...

I have a small screw in the front of them to make sure I dont lose them. And without them, I would be worried about damage to my aftermarket lights.

lol... I just like to be different, but still keep a clean look on my cars. It cost me $300 for the powdercoating. They did glossy black, then a clear gloss powdercoat over that.

Yeah I would like to know how the clear lenses are as well. I just think in general they have to be screwed in to the nose..

Re: pics of the rims blacked out

I think a polished lip would break up the black nicely, as such with BADNBLK's car.
