Stock rim redesigns via blacking-out.

[Adamdan]

Looks great! If you don't mind sharing, what coating did you use and how much did it cost. thanks

Thanks, I’m not sure what they used sorry. It cost just over 1k Canadian all in.

They came out amazing.

That does look good. Got any more pix in some better light? Or are you garaged for the winter?

Not an owner (yet) but I've been running the stinger through photoshop to change some of the styling cues and test a few looks out.

I'm not a fan of the stock rims, so I wanted to see what could be done to change the design without shelling out for a whole new set.

I think some of these look pretty slick compared to the stock design, but let me know if you have any other ideas. You can also try your own by layering the "stock" image over the "all black" image and erase the top layer.

ALL. BLACK. FTW

Nope drive the car year round bc gets maybe a day or two of snow a year. Had zero snow this year, was looking forward to try the awd in the snow this year. This is another shot I have. If you want to see more let me know and I’ll try and get some more next time I clean it.

That's warm for Canada, that must be the tropical part

Thanks much. I don’t think any of us would have a problem seeing more. I’ve been wondering what that color would look like with black stock wheels. Looks pretty amazing!

My customer opted to powder coat his stock wheels black. Also did the badge swap for him and painted the center caps black to match. Looks pretty sharp when I see him around town.

I am looking to do the same. Did he do gloss or semi gloss and did you also prefer coat the lug nuts?

He did a full gloss black, but left the lug nuts alone since they'll be covered for 99.99% of the time. He had a Ceramic Silver GT1 with the same scheme that was unfortunately totaled due to another driver.

Forgot to ask, sorry if you’ve mentioned it before, is it lowered or stock height?

It’s stock height. I was going to lower it but after I did the wheels it looks so much better that I’m going to keep it stock.

Personally, I really like the OEM's. But when I got a set of winters, decided to go black for a winter "wardrobe change". I've come to appreciate the look and I think black looks great on virtually every color Stinger - especially the blue and white.

I just got a Powder Coat quote for $60 per wheel ? I'm waiting for a few more , but I'm definitely thinking about gloss black wheels

That’s a great price.

60 per wheel sounds very cheap.... make sure you find a good shop if it’s done poorly would be a big mistake.

I'm getting at least 5 quotes , I'm betting the $60 is only for PC , and that the sand blasting and prep is extra , I'll keep you posted .

Oh ok that makes more sense. I paid 1000 Canadian all in with tax. That included removing tires and reinstall and balance. I used the best shop in my area and it was worth every penny.

So in the bottom picture you get some blue (reflection) in the inner rim (?) part. How about the all black but micro blue on the cap and inner rim? HHmmH? Oo

 

[Doel]

what do you guys think about all gloss black but leaving the lip polished?
