Default Custom Powder Coated Rims w/ pics

I got a sneek peek on the status of my rims yesterday. They are looking INCREDIBLE. I can't wait to get them on my car.









They are being done by Tony @ Advanced Custom Coatings in Hampton. The pics don't do the wheels justice. They really look incredible, and the price is nothing for the work it is taking to accomplish it. Here is their info....

Do they repair and polish rims as well? If so, ill check them out. Been trying to find an honest place that does honest good work.

Yes, they are Porsche rims. They are 17" Turbo Twists (from a 996 twin turbo).

They do polish rims from my understanding. However, i'm not sure if they repair rims.

I got a deal because i brought in a lot of other things besides the rims (brake calipers, intake manifold, valve cover, etc).

there is something about it with the red on it that is making my eyes not focus on what it will actually look like. Post some pics once they are on the car. They look like they are going to be dope though.

i'll definitely post pics after getting the wheels on the car (it should be Thur-Fri next week). I'll also post some pics of the other stuff i got coated.
