BAIC - I need your input on what to do with my wheels!
[/QUOTE]I painted these RS wheels bronze last spring, but I didnt use enough clearcoat. When clean they look good imo, but they get dirty ULTRA fast, and are very difficult to clean (therefore, never clean)
I dont think I want to go through the hours of sanding, prepping and painting again...Im not a pro painter so they could end up mediocre.
Im going to take them to a shop for powdercoating or paining. Im thinking gold.
What would YOU do? What color?? Gunmetal, gold, bronze, silver, black???

thats what i remember. 1 horrible experience should not justify the boycott of a company....unless its FLI.
