Nameless has some...I assume you're talking top Center or the pulley covers? If pulleys then MAP makes those

Are you worried about powder coating and the possibility of degrading the quality of the rim because of the heat baking?

Not really worried about the structural integrity, I would probably think twice about powder coating light weight track wheels or very thin spoked wheels. But then again I am "all show no go"

I've tracked numerous sets of powder coated wheels with no issues.

Never tracked a set of rotas though.

Great thread. It's helped me find so more strut tower braces I didn't know were out there.

Very nice. How did you nab the Carbing Ti strut bar without it coming with the wrong side master cylinder brace?
