    Question Has anyone powdercoated fat fives? Pics please

    Sorry guys I tried searching threads and cannot find anything. If you know where theres a link or if you have powdercoated fat fives I'd really like to see them. I'm leaning toward a gunmetal or flat black. Thanks for the feedback

    I know, but those don't even look good on the Teg, let alone a blue-on-blue sedan (from what I remember the color being). Just my honest opinion. The only gold rims I would ever put on a blue car are BBS/rally-type rims.

    Charlie, cut me some slack, bro and read the entire thread. I posted a pic to see what they would look like photoshopped in black. I like the look of black with the blue sedan. Besides I would only run gold rims on a hot pink wagon

    This is what I came up with.
