It's always nice to see RPF1 in a different color. OAKOS is selling a limited run in gunmetal directly from Enkei for anyone interested in a similar look.

Looks good, and matches the body color. May I know how much did you pay?

386.00 for a 2 stage powder coat. If you just want a single it's about 100 less. I wanted the high gloss. The company that did it is Vibrantfinish the have a Facebook page. If you wanted to check them out.

I’ve never been one for matching the wheel color with the body color, especially in the darker colors, but the wheels look good, looks like a quality job

Thanks. If you could see it in person the difference in the colors it much more noticeable.

I'm against the wall on what color to powdercoat my rpf1's it's either going to be gun metal or gloss white. Only issue is gun metal kinda reminds me of sbc. But seeing this makes me what to go gunmetal. I would love to see the wheels on a black vehicle

On a black car? My humble opinion there are only 3 colors that really work, with the best first. Standard boring Alum/silver finish, Bronze and then gold. Ive seen everything else in between, and just doesn't look that great, but can surely make a statement if thats what your after.
