What do you guys think of the idea of powdercoating my rims alpine white to match AW 1 series?:iono:

Just don't get sunglasses in White too.

Goodness. Yes that is quite the combo isn't it.

Happy brake dusting!

[vivid]

a little too much white I think.

[mtla4]

Nope not at all. If you want to keep the stockers put them Gunmetal

Edit: after looking at the photoshop in the photos section, it looks better than I would've thought... that's what I get....

I dont think it would be too much, I think it would make the car stand out.:biggrin:

[ThunderRobo]

Go for it!

Maybe white w/a red 'Time attack' lip?

[ChrisK]

You know, it may just look pretty cool! Although I wouldn't want to clean those babies.

[eunosracr]

White on white like Rick Ross. I think it would look good. Just a bitch to keep clean.

I prefer to leave the beautiful 264's alone, but All Alpine should look great with properly coated tires and tint. Also with the black shadowline trim and grills you will have enough contrast.

:w00t: love the look of white/white, but others have said...I wouldnt wanna clean 'em!! haha....

[PPower]

It would look good, but those 6 pots create more brake dust than any car I've been around in a long time, maybe ever. I guess that's the downside of performance. Want gunmetal? Just don't clean the wheels when you wash. If you don't like the color, just wash it off.

[Spook]

It's OK if you're going to drive it in weddings and blizzards.

[blklacker]

I like your idea but with the way brake dust is with bmw its a bad idea, Im happy with my color rims after powder coating. gunmetal is the best way to go

[Call]

I have been thinking about the AW powdercoating, too. I can get it done for $280 so I'm really thinking hard about this. I just don't have any other wheels to put on it until they get done. As for the brake dust...all the wheels look like crap with brake dust on them.

If I do it I'll post pictures the same day I get them back.

Depends on how the rest of your car looks.

Your rims will need to be cleaned more often though, but if you keep up with it, it'll look good.

[itsthechuck]

I think it could look good.

[imported_Maurice]

After seeing a picture, I think the white wheels look good. At first, I was having Fantasy Island flashbacks! I wouldn't want anything that would make brake dust even more visible, though.
