Default Pic request: Powder coated/painted AP1 wheels!

I have a silverstone w/ stock AP1 wheels right now and I'm hung up on what color I would want to powder them. Im looking for pictures of powder coated AP1 wheels if anyone has them, please post them up!

Right now Im thinking gloss black, or a variation of silver. Black is easy and it always turns out good, I just find it a bit cheap looking.

Its nice to find stuff on this site though. I would still like to see white, bronze or anthracite on a silverstone car though.

I think mag blue would look great, check out JDMQuips wheels in this thread https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=835777

I had my ap1's powdered a silver with metal flake, something between sebring silver and silverstone. They were a bit subtle, looked good when the sun hit them and they sparkled a bit.

Thanks for the pics, Im definately leaning towards a lighter color. I find the blacked out colors make the car look like its running steelies or something.

Anyone ever had AP1's chromed out or chrome powder coated?
