Powdercoat wheels! need color advice!!!
Long story short, my wheelshop is giving me a great deal on powdercoating my iforge swift , I would like to your opinion for color choice as I haven't made a decision yet
.
My IS is SGM color. What I have in mind:
-dark gun metal with polished lip
-burning black with polished lip
-Matte gun metal with polished lip
-Gold with polished lip
What do you guys think? pictures are very welcomed!
Below is my IS before I repolished the lip.
