my TRD Revos "to chrome or to powdercoat"???

Postby LatinUSMC » Fri Nov 30, 2007 4:35 pm

Im thinking of changing the color of my rims...
i got my revos from Sir spadwaller(i f you rmember hes car was totaled by a hit n run driver) the rims were left w deep curb scratches. so i got em fixed but the spray paint used to match the current grey somehow absorbed the brake dust.

what do you guys think i should do??? :roll: any one have chrome on grey solaras??

Any "CONSTRUCTIVE" critisism is Welcomed...

ohh yeah ill answer these two"ahead of time.....

NO, I am Not dropping it anytime soon..maybe when i move out of my current apt..since i scrape every day at stock height
NO, Im buying New rims and tires i like my TRD revos
and thanks for the smart as* comments.... :P

I vote a gunmetal/graphite powdercoat finish. I'm powdercoating my wheels graphite in February. I think it will match well with my headlights. Your dark tails will go well with a darker rim color as well.

i agree with the powdercoating silver or gunmetal... dont go with chrome, it will look tacky IMO. Powdercoating should be really clean if done well.

How much?? I know of a place in Saugus.... I think like 70 bucks per wheel. And if you want custom colors, you buy the paint.
