That color caliper that blnewt suggested would do wonders on that color wheel! They came out perfect I'm very impressed. But with that said I also agree the car needs a drop and then it'll be 100%!

Those look sweet. I had considered gloss black but it's too common on black vehicles over here, so I wanted something different. I love the black wheels on the white ride though. And I had looked at purchasing new rims, but just prefer the stockers, so powder coating made sense.

Lol. Yeah, I was hoping you'd say ATL. He does have a waiting room with DirecTV if you change your mind. There has got to be someone in ATL at least that does similar work...

Its a

Thank you, and I'm sure. Everyone does black on black. I'm sure everyone does white on black as well but who cares. I like it and eventually I would like to completely make everything black and white but we shall see lol money is an issue. And I would like to get bigger rims eventually but that is way down the road. I wanted something different that wasn't too expensive and made the car look better. It's a way better route to go rather than spending 2k on rims and tires lol that would be a third of my yearly salary! Lol

Yeah I know ATL has a powder coater for sure but it's just the 2 hour drive and than the whole day wait depending on how long the process. There are powder coaters in my area but they only do like commercial or they want to charge an arm and leg since they know they're only ones.

They look fantastic!!! This what I want but am having trouble finding a shop that can do it. Also how long did it take to do yours?

jeepbrew

Thanks! I posted it somewhere earlier in this thread, but I dropped it off at 5:30 AM and it was ready to drive home around 2:30 PM later that day.

Really like what you did with your wheel. I too have been thinking about doing this.
Can you Pls share what color you used on your wheels, and how much it cost to do all 4 wheels?

I also like the suggestion below of painting the calipers, and never thought that copper would look that good.

I'm not sure if the op posted it but it generally runs $100-125 a wheel. I was quoted $500. The shop has to remove the tire to powder coat. Then remount and balance. It's a pretty lengthy process.

How much did it cost to powder coat?

Looks amazing!
Is your car stock height? Looks a bit lower then stock....

jeepbrew

I chose a black base layer with a gunmetal grey on top. My buddy's shop charges $600 out-the-door for the process.

Yup, there is a lot of work involved. $500 total is a pretty dang good deal.

$600

Nah, stock height. I have debated on dropping it a bit, but at the same time I'm pretty pleased with where it sits and I have other toys to dump my $$ into. If I lowered it I'd also probably have to hear my wife b!t@h about it.
