seriously though I didn't carbon dip them I bought them like this as I like the wheels, they probably will end up gloss black one day.

yes, i read above you paid your hard earned for them. dont get me wrong, i do like the wheels, just not the fake carbon!!

each to their own and all that, wheels are a VERY personal choice, so who cares what i think!

but hey, if you paint them black, even better!

ive often thought about painting the wheels on my uk300 dayglow orange, as i think that would go well with the blue.

but i havnt, yet lol

ps how does that coating come off? shotblast effort or can it ust be rubbed down and painted over??
