    Powder coat

    Anyone within 150 miles of MSP that needs powder coating done should get a hold of me before Friday.

    I met this biker guy that has his own shop. Went to check it out, he does amazing work. I decided to move some of our manufacturing work to him. He said he'd do anything I can get him by Friday for free. I'm getting my truck's rear bumper done. Looking at getting the A4 sport OEM rims done.

    Anyone got pics of the sport rims powder coated? I'm really debating on color choices. Almost anything will look good on my black A4.

    Sorry, these pics are shitty, it's not sunny, and they are old. My powdercoat was 80% gloss which is pretty close to the paint, but you've gotta keep wet shine or satin shine on your tires or they look dingy in comparison to the wheels.

    mdzaudi- Debadge, blackout grille, joeymod headlights, darker tint and you've basically got my car. I am a big fan of the black with unpainted lowers, every other color looks bad with it. I'm definitely going to try a 75% black gloss powdercoat on the OEM rims.

    Re: Powder coat

    Haha, funny you should mention those mods. Joey modded lights arrived today (didn't do them myself), plan on tinting darker, plan on blacking grill, plan on debadging. I've got alot more plans of course but the list is damn near endless.
