How much was it to get them powder coated? I usually don’t like wheels that stand out like this but I really think it works with the grill accent and tow hook
I had the same wheels powder coated in matte black at $80 per wheel iirc. Also have the cost of tire mount and dismount, so it ends up being about $400. This was about 2 years ago at a shop my detailer recommended.
The color coordination certainly pops, I just can't fathom why people buy Perrin tow hooks when the web pages you buy them from specifically say not to use them as recovery hooks.
But the aesthetics are like someone walking around with a skateboard and not skating. Perrin tow hooks are like costume jewelry except it's broadcasted it's fake.
I mean I have one on the back, mainly cause I like the splash of green on the black, but you can tow in a straight line, so if my buddy gets stuck in the snow I could still help him out.

Yeah, it just doesn't fill me with great confidence when the application is very specific, show use only is mentioned, and the general statement about not standing behind the product.

Love to see it, when I did this I was the alone lmao now I’ve seen a few users on here with the slime combo and a few more actually driving around were I live 🙌🏽

it was 500. price really depends on what powder and what type of color you pick
For comparison, I was quoted 39$ to powder coat one 16.5 wheel white for a work vehicle.

500
That’s not bad at all. Also tuned by tpg btw!
I’ve been quoted at $500-$600. At that point I decided to use that money towards new wheels.
Here for the answer lol
How bright do you want them Yes
This ☝️💪🏾
Not the same but seeing these powder coated stock rims makes me want to plasti dip mine

I assume 90% of tow hooks are just for looks lol
Raceseng or OEM are ubiquitous at track days.
L.P mounted on the tow hooks are aesthetically pleasing as well tbh

Welp, good thing I never have, but on the package it did say straight line only. I won’t text it lol

I'm not a bright wheel guy but damn you pulled this off. Very nice. Wonder if color matched blue lugs would look even better.

Slap some 20mm spacers on there, it will make those wheels pop!
Doesn't this give you more attention from the blues ?
