that looks great.

very nice job of doing something different that polishing, and it should look even better with those wheels!

Is that powder coating?

Can't wait to see finished pics!

Yes it is Powder coating, i know that it will trap heat some but i've decided that i didnt care and i'll just go with some sort of IC sprayer or Water/Alc Injection.

JSpecRZ:
Sorry about that man but hopfully with the pettit fender flares and what i'm done with my engine and other body mods out car will look far enough apart. But GOOD CHOICE!!!

Looks nice. I like the originality w/the gold. Not the typical chrome look of everything else.

GOLD? Nicely done....I can't believe I said that!

I wouldn't sweat the "heat trapping" thing. It also insulates.

Really nice. Kudos for thinking "outside the box". LOVE the wheels.
