glossy gun metal.

they kind of look matte on the pic, its because the picture's from sms. But in real life, the look is awesome, freshly powder coated.

I really like the contrast. OEMish but darker.

Black wheel are nice if you keep your rubber black, most people wont, so the tire look brown. ishh...

I think gloss gunmetal will be the best choice on a black car, the black ones will be lost in the color and will not highlight the car.

I vote gunmetal or matte black.

If you're not sure, plasti dip it. BUT IN the good way. This product got a bad rep because people don't know how to use it !

- prep as a real paint job. bondo, sand, wat sand, dewax/degrease, primer.
- heat cans in hot water for 10 min
- 50/50 overlap wet coat only. 15 min waiting for each coat.
- 3 to 4 coat of base color
- 2 coat of glossifier.

absolutely no orange peel
yes it will last (I'm on my 4th winter , ice, snow, gravel, calcium, salt)
It can even hold temp on muffler tips.

You dont like it ? take it off and re-do. about 5-6 cans for 4 wheels, got them @ 12$ each.

here a job on my dd (3 coats gunmetal dip + 2 coats glossifier) :





On the X3 wheels I'll try the ''Moore Motorsports James Dguy'' youtuber diy. he does magic with rust-oleum product. This is all about prep and technique .
