Nismo factory rims powder coated GR-02

Minicobra1 · 03-12-2010, 04:56 AM

Just picked my Nismo factory rims up from the powder coaters a couple hours ago, the color is Cardinal GR-02 Steel Gray Pearlecent. Price was $340 out the door at a place called Exclusive Powder Coating in Valencia, they are open 24hrs, which worked for me :-) I'll post up some more pics when they are installed, probably Saturday morning, need to get them installed before the Cerritos meet Saturday night

Yeah, about 60 miles, but they are the only place open 24hrs. Most are only 8am-4pm, that doesn't work for my schedule. It was funny, but I actually dropped them off at 1am in the morning

great look! i got the nismos too but in stock color and was thinking of powder coating them later down the line after i start getting rock chips or curb rash

how long did the process take? also, did you have to get the tires unmounted first or would they have done that for you? i only have the wheels on my car without a spare set so i'm hoping they can do the unmounting themselves and i can just leave the car there while they work on the wheels

MC1, I notice a small imperfection...I think you need to take them back!
