damn dude, where ya been? hows the rst?

i sold mine to my bro and he powdercoated them a light gray and it came out pretty good. but make sure if you have any pitting already that you get someone to acid etch them and make sure its a good job. on his wheels they didnt get all of the metal particals out and they pitted again under the powdercoating.

Can you get any pics of your bro's. Wheels?
I was thinking of doing mine in a charcoal metalic? Mine are pitted VERY badly so I hope they can even be coated? Some of the pitts are pretty deep!

So maybe by next Friday they will be done.
Which set of wheels did you decide to powdercoat? Post pics when you get them done!

They got blasted on Thursday and will get coated Tuesday or Wednesday. They were still in good shape so I am going gloss black. Hope to have them back before next weekend w/ the tires back on them.

I'm so excited to see the Speedsters in black! Are the lugs and center caps going to stay chrome?

Yes they will be staying chrome. Just wish the center caps said "Foose" and not "Regency" They should look pretty tight though.

Still waiting. They said they were going to do them today. I will take pics of them before the tires go back on.

If you want the center caps to just say FOOSE on them, just order them. I lost my regency caps and just ordered regular caps for the speedster and they looked better that the ones the truck came with!
