Anybody know how the gunmetal finish is achieved???

also i know the mustang gts have gunmetal painted rims... (doesnt look genuine)

how would 03 stype rims look with gunmetal finish??? also what would be the most practical way to get this??? if its paint... what type/color and precautions must be taken for rims???

Don't think that would work well on rims. I think it's similar to the black oxide finish on impact sockets. What makes that type of finish shine is actually a coating of oil. Without the oil the will rust when any water touches them. Not a good out door finish.

but ive seen rims that have a gunmetal finish....


(I REALLY WANT THESE 19")

how are they done then???

ChadT

They are just painted a color that looks like gun metal. Those are sharp rims.

ehh i guess i'll wait for my rims... the same rims above what finish...
chrome
gunmetal
aluminum

19" is a must... finish is a tough choice for me although im not a chrome fan

blader

definetly gunmetal with a polished lip.

Are those the Falken Torque 5 rims? If not they are a look alike.
