OEM Wheel Colors

Has anyone powder coat or plasti dipped the OEM wheels one color as opposed to the way our stock wheels come multi-colored? I've been thinking of powdercoating our wheels a Gold; not sure what colors is best, 3 in mind right now, Black, Gunmetal and Gold. Does anyone have pictures of the stock OEM wheels any of these colors. Thanks guys! Pictures would be great btw!

I'm gonna do the same. Some people on here have powder coated them and others have plasti dipped them just one color. Do a quick search and they should come up.

I have seen white and the silver color. I plan on doing gun metal. Black first then spray with silver metalizer

Check the fitment guide, I believe several have single-colored their stock wheels already (black, white, gold, etc.)

Those are some seriously visually distracting mud flaps you've got there. Why red? I mean, to each his own, but damn.

I'm thinking two tone bronze and the stock black would be a nice, subtle change..

I've always liked the contrast of red and WRB (I've had the same combo on my wrx). I like em, but like you said, to each his own
