looks good..given the color hard to tell you might come out looking rather monochrome with your PG Z and painted wheels now..

how long did the process take? also, did you have to get the tires unmounted first or would they have done that for you? i only have the wheels on my car without a spare set so i'm hoping they can do the unmounting themselves and i can just leave the car there while they work on the wheels
Had to bring the wheels in with the tires off, they don't do mounting there, just the powder coating. it took a week to get them back.

I was worried about that, but they are a good shade darker, hopefully it will be a good contrast :tup: Yep I've done a bit of playing :tiphat:

MC1, you're always adding some small detail to everything Z. Will you be painting the "NISMO" letters? Red or black? ;

Ha, I am considering it, have some older photoshops, I'll have to photoshop these once I get them installed to see how it looks :tup:

Gotta love CA. I mean a 24 hour powercoat place... lol. You'd be lucky to find a gas station open past 8:00pm around here.

God I hate Vermont... I need to move back to NY

Bad news, I don't know why this happened, maybe Mike can shed some light on it. It's just peeling off, not baked long enough, or didn't prep the wheel. They said they were going to strip it, but it looks like the original coating is still on underneath. :confused:

man that sucks, hope they can correct the issues

Truly sorry this happened to you. As they say, "prep is everything" and these guys missed the boat.
