Nissan 370Z Forum - The 370z Useless Thread (Coors Lite version)

Sending them to mike to get powdercoated is going to be $75 each way shipping, plus $400 for powdercoating, and if I do it right, another $100 or so for full blasting...so 650 there. If I did that for someone that wanted to buy them, I'd price it to get my money back out of the deal overall (keeping in mind I only paid $1,200 instead of the $1,400 they list for). so if forgestar paid for it all I'd sell em for $1,200.

I wouldn't sell them as-is, I don't want someone else unhappy with them.

Tires I'd end up having to sell since I want those Vossens and they are 20"

i doubt they would pay for you to powdercoat.... really doubting it....

i really think you should take's Lou's offer and refund those FuglyStars at once.......... better not wait or they will not accept it back at all.....

ya, 3 glossy, 1 satin...not a single finish covers the entire wheel...pinstripe already chipping off on one of the wheels...thats the basic summary.

did they NOT put a coat of clear after the pin stripe.... that could be why it's chipping off already

i bet they didn't b/c it was a rush job

damn 20" on the Z though. that's gonna be huuuuge. i do wish vossen would consider the 19" :(

20's are perfect. we got a big but and we cannot lie. venaci's look soooooo dope. but im loving those teaser vossen. they're like 360forged, but with quality and customer service

Thats prolly why they had to wait so long... They made 3 then they pissed off the pinstriper, so he said screw you guys, and they were stallin while they tried to find a new pinstriper. To no avail they decided to try fixing the one wheel, and one of them attempted to do it himself, but having no clue how, you see the end result...

those vossens could convince me of this quite easily

nogoodname

10-07-2009 02:45 PM

Wait, do you have a set or more pictures or something?

let the OGs in on this man :wtf:

nogoodname

10-07-2009 02:54 PM

:icon08:

keep in mind the spokes look flat in the side shot pics, but looking straight at them.... they have a cool design to it... the side of the spokes changes angle as it gets closer to the lug hole and wraps around it..... hard to explain...........
