I'll know soon though because the ones I'm getting from Mikelly are goind straight to powdercoating.
I believe I paid 80 a wheel, got a good deal for a good job!

Looks good on your car, you hyped for VIR, wait I know you are haha!

Hi Muker,

They were sandblasted and then powdercoated and finished with a gunmetal grey with a gloss finish.

The colour is very very similar to the BMW colour 'Sparkling Graphite'

Hope you get the finish you are after, its amazing the difference it makes to the look of the car!

Thanks - will get it done. I really like the look and
it makes a huge difference without spending big bucks (which is always nice to save for other upgrades)

Thanks

That's sechsgang's car-- so tell him!

As for the wing, it's a GT2 decklid/CF blade from EVOMS. It looks quite different now (and our Turbo has remained STOCK).

When running stock wheels, consider putting on some 15mm spacers all around. Totally fills out the fenders.

If you roll the rears I am almost positive you can run 23mm spacers. Rolling the fenders opens up a lot room.
