    If you can spare your car for a couple days and want something that will last better than paint I suggest powder coating it. Check around your area for places is shouldn't be to expensive but deff more than spray paint....

    depending on where you go, but i think its anywhere between $50 and $100 per wheel. Dont quote me on it, that is roughly what is it here in CT

    i think powder coating is a waste of money if its too expensif u might just save and get new rims... then u could resell ur gts rims

    I think the black would look even better with a chrome or silver lip.
