Wheels Painted at Apex Restoration

Just had my wheels painted at Apex Restoration (cartapex) and John did a great job. My wheels were in great condition but I wanted a darker gunmetal and wanted to get rid of the polished lip. We could not find the paint code I was looking for so John and his crew spent a bit a time looking around before laying the paint. Next week John will be spraying my side skirts so he is already getting repeat business!

Anyone looking to get some work done should not hesitate using Apex Restoration. John and his crew provide outstanding customer service, produce high quality with a fast turn around. And they provide free Mt Dew and WiFi in the lobby while waiting for your ride

I know everyone loves pics so here are some before and after shots.

Here is the before shot

Mounted
