New Shoes for the Claret
Last night, Eric and I took a ride over to my new powdercoat outlet, and picked up my wheels. The photos don't do them justice.
   And one more...  This is the car they will be going onto:  The quality of the job that was done is absolutely amazing! They have a very mild metallic which only shows up in the daylight mostly. My center caps are on order and they will be done to match in the same color. I am VERY happy with the results and eager to get them onto my car. I will be dropping them off at the tire shop today to have 225/40 18 Toyo Proxes4's mounted and balanced.

Re: New Shoes for the Claret
Gold really looks awesome on the claret. The wheels look very nice. Congrats!

Re: New Shoes for the Claret
Should I ask how much the powder coating cost?

We are now taking our business to a different shop. They were quite reasonable, and they were done right.

Re: New Shoes for the Claret
Mike, are they done in Enkei gold like the STI rims or just gold? Looks awsome by the way.
