Sport package wheels, red anyone?
 

Anyone out there have their OEM sport package wheels powdercoated, or dipped a shade of red?

My wheels are currently dipped a custom dark gunmetal shade by a pro, and next year I'm thinking of peeling and trying a deep or dark red color for something different.

Anyone?

Depends on how it is executed. Don't let naysayers kill the idea. Not mine but I like it.

it comes down to ur car, if u like it then do it...;)

Use palstidip first to see if you like it, before you go the permanent rout.

It's been done...

White pulls it out ok. It an intense shade... that rear bumper... front of evo X final edition?

:happydance:

id get a splitter of some sort (like a Ings+) to finish it off. too much sparkle on the wheels while rest of the car looks stock.

Wrong wheels.

actually no, them nismo wheels are PERFECT for the base. :rofl2:
but the color asks for more bits to dress up the car a tad more for balance with the theme.

dat said, i luv my hypersilver nismo wheels on my photoshopped ride.. :ugh: :icon17: ;)

I agree.
By wrong, I mean that the OP asked for sports wheels.

I'd never permanently change the color of OEM wheels. Ruins any potential resale value. Not to mention I've always been leery of powdercoating a forged wheel, after having a wheel crack on me in 2005.

Autoflex is peelable, and is durable, able to be glossy etc. Everyone just knows the name "plastidip" from 5 years ago, but things have changed a lot. See below.

That red on the nismo wheels is the color I'd be looking for, not bright "fire engine" red. A darker shade of red.
