Thanks to dranged and all other members that helped me decided what finish to go with. In the end i went with a dark hyper silver, sort of like the e39 m5 rims but a few shades darker.

Shadowline is coming so dont worry guys

Paid 700 out the door. I know i overpaid but this place had the quickest turn around time from all the shops i was quoted. The rims were all curbed up and 2 rims had cracks so that might of been the reason for the high price as well.

Great looking wheels and great avatar (always been a big Dr. Dre fan: "You gotta problem. I gotta problem solver. And his name is revolver").

With powdercoating the 166s, the shadowline mod cannot come fast enough.
