IOM Camaro Powdercoated Flat Black wheels

Just got done powdercoating the wheels, I matched them as close to the flat black stripes as I could. Color is a light textured flat black, leave a comment on the way out! Also did the rear flat black out panel

Looks good. Why didn't blackout the centercap & the ends of the lug nuts?

May do it in the future, but right now I like the silver offset.

Hey were you down by the Toyota Center Thursday night? Because I saw an IOM just like yours with powder coated rims there.

Nope, just got them installed yesterday, and it rained, so today was the first time to take the car out!

I like it!!! Two Thumbs Up!

May I suggest a rather inexpesive mod to really clean her up?

1. Remove the Taillight Bezels. Chrome offsets really standout on her rearend. - $FREE
2. Muffler Delete - $75

Noice!

Thanks for the comments guys-

I'm going to paint the taillight bezels flat black soon, and I need to keep the mufflers to quiet the Kooks

Cost was around 500 out the door, including tire dismount, mount, valvestems, balancing, and if course the powdercoating. I dropped the wheels off Thursday and picked them up Friday, worked out great!

This place had the cheapest pricing I've ever found, and gives a 2yr warranty!

Looks great - I plan on doing this when I get my white 2ss/rs.

My suggestion, black (or IOM) out your bowties...or don't it's your ride

I've been trying to find a set up like this for a couple months. I love that look. Can't wait to powder coat my rims, may do a flat black tho.
