Powder Coated Acura Rims

I have the 01 stock cl s rims . Does anyone have them powder coated black or gun metal with pics ?
If not how do you guys think it'd look ? I can get it done for mad cheap , I just dont know if itd look that much better than they do now anyways .
I searched the forums and all I found were threads with expired pics .

tell me what you think

I always wanted to do that to my stock CL-S wheels, but never got around to it. I did however PC my stock subaru wheels.

Mine are gun metal but I can't take a pic right now as my CLS is in the body shop for repairs from hitting a deer last tuesday. This is my second deer this year. It hurts to see it laid up. When I get it back I will post a pic. I like it.

What color is your CL? I think you should do it.


Also, if I were you, according to your sig, I'd take that car back to the dealership and have them check that tranny thats taking a dump on you.

Nighthawk black baby <3 .
And I'm getting the black tints when I get my car back from the dealershit .
^ also responds to the dealership comment . Yeh they told me it would be ready by friday and its almost monday . Ass clowns .
Anyways I'm looking for 2003 lights with that black line to match the darkness .

And does anybody know of a nice way to make my door handles and all that chrome on around the windows and front grill black ?
info appreciated .

Matt - Did someone in the Portland area do this? I'm here in town and might like to give it a try on my SMR CL....

Thanks
