that looks great! i wonder how they would look on a platinum granite roadster...

if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to powder coat? i might be interested in doing something similar

I actually got them sprayed as the powder-coaters here aren't very good at making custom colors so they are sprayed..

I got mine painted. They came out really good. The guy that I go to does a lot of high end cars. When I took my car to him he was doing a Casino Royale version of the DBS. Getting my headlights painted matte black and my S-Tune front lip painted matte black like the twin turbo Z from Horsepower Logic. Will post pics when its all done. Yours looks great BTW. If the paint is done by a good guy then it will be fine. I've driven mine about 10,000 miles and I have to go on the interstate to reach my college and I only have 1 little tiny chip;which he is going to paint over for free.

throw on some 10mm spacers in the rear and you are set!

or get 15mm Rear and 5 or 10mm up front!

looks sweet... I like the gunmetal look much better than black... all though its hard to judge without really seeing the two colors in person..

but Im a fan of the outcome for sure.

What does an avg powder coat job cost??

I just priced it in SA TX and it is $80.00 pre wheel you have to bring the unmounted wheel in. Also got a quote in AUS and it was around $800.00 complete.
