Thanks. The shop I used (in Germany) had a huge stack of colors, no less than 10 were some sort of gunmetal-ish color. I just randomly chose one of them.

This thread is great but was really really hoping for a PB X3 on satin black 699s.....

elodewijk · 03-06-2021, 10:41 AM

Hello ... those wheels look great, what kind of mud flaps are those and where can I get them !?

I am looking for the same

Nobody on the forum has done satin black on a PB?

So happy to go with Satin Black…..The car looks so meaner now. Highly recommend if someone is considering the powder coating.

MP2050 · 05-06-2021, 03:05 PM

OK so I've only had her for about 3 weeks. All emblems are gone & tints are on. I told myself to just enjoy the car as is for now.....

But 5mins ago I just sent out the request on a quote to go Satin Black...smh.

What tint do you have? Just fronts, or all around? (yes, I know rears are privacy glass)

Just had him try to match the rear as much as possible so 15%....I'm not a huge fan of tints so matching factory is dark enough for me.

Wow that sure is tempting on my Alpine White. On average how much is powder coating per rim?

Jiovanny · 05-06-2021, 10:27 PM

fucking do it

Jiovanny · 05-06-2021, 10:29 PM

Hurry up and do it already lol

Bestle · 05-06-2021, 11:02 PM

I'm tempted to go for a satin gunmetal, I feel like with the black you just lose all the detail of the wheel.

I paid 500 for the 4 rims including the installation and balance as well as storage in Chicagoland area. It's worth completely…

Here's mine.

Ivanbmw · 05-19-2021, 12:44 AM

Has anyone powder coated an EOM R18 wheel for a X1 older than 2019?
I have a 2018 and I was thinking in powder coating with gloss black.
