Silver STi/ Black Rims

Does anyone have a Silver STi with stock painted glossy black rims, Im thinking about having this done and wanted to see picture first, is there a picture in members cars.

 

This is exactly what i'm doing with my 04 wrb sti. I'm painting the stockers flat black and i'm going wingless with the cf hood/trunk. I think it will look tight. I'll post some pics when i get it done!

 

Looks sweet in my opinion...both fobia and bikerboy have redone their sti rims in black. I think fobia may have done glossy but either way it looks sick. I love the look of cf hood/trunk and black wheels that I have going

 

I wont have CF trunk or anything, but wanted to see pictures.

 

I have been wanting to do this since I got my car in March of last year. Wonder if anyone would discount for multiple sets. Flat black so I never have to clean them.

 

word, maybe we should get a group buy together since i want to do mine soon too.

 

ive seen bikerboy's car with black bbs's it looks good

I heard ReadyMix does a very good job and is very reasonable, I have talked to him in the past about it. My wife and I are driving down to Daytona Beach for Spring Break and a big car show, I wanted something to set car apart a little bit.

 

I could be wrong but I do not think The Mix does powercoating. I want to do that for sure to make it as tough as possbile.

 

Depending on price and downtime, I might be down for a powdercoating group buy.

 

He doesn't do powdercoating but does a killer job at painting.

 

I have a set of wheels I want done in anthracite if I can get in on a group buy.

 

I would love to get a set of stock WRX's in semi-gloss black...group buy on black? haha...

 

I think a group buy could be done just gotta find a place...I want my stockers painted with a blue lip like another person on the board or I would even redo mine since mine arn't technically black and I would love to have flat black.

 

hmmm now looking at that wrb with black i'm having second thoughts. I wonder if there are any pics of one with like a graphite or flat/matte black. I saw that bronze idea and that could look pretty cool. haha i'll play around with he photoshop today and see:naughty:

 

yeah someone get a group buy going i want my rims done in either gold or dark gray just in time for the summer.

 

i know someone that works at abra autobody that might spray them he can do any color you want including metallic or pearl i can get a flat rate from him and let you know... when i worked there i color matched my rims, tails, and side markers with oem paint

p.s. it would be car paint with or w/o clear...

 

I have bronze currently on my wrb and they dont look too bad. If you want some bronze rims I would consider selling my bronze w/ polished lip subzero rotas. they are 18 x 7.5 I believe.

 

I'd be in for a group buy for powder coated rims!

 

I just called Abra in Maplewood and they said atleast $200 per rim to paint:eek3: . He told me about a place in Bloomington that specializes in it and they charge 180 a rim:eek3:

 

might as well ask ray to give us a pair of rotas for that price :eek3:

 

I seem to remember $200 to powercoat a set at the place in Plymouth.

 

I am also IN For the group buy...
