Did you only powder coat the lips? Seems where the spokes meet the lip it is not powder-coated? Either that the pics/lighting is off. From those pics it looks like you have dirty wheels/brake dust on them IMO. Like the CF tho

Please explain exactly what was powdercoated so we can better understand. Maybe a close up pic of the wheel itself? Looks different. Might look better if you get rid of those RV mudflaps though.
All the best

Hi Guys...know exactly what you mean..its called a `flash`finish,front face is done very lightly and the inners done darker...it is exactly the look i was looking for...i originally got the idea when i had been to London and back and saw how much dirt had gathered on the alloys 
...i thought to myself...i like that look

Love the originality; however, I would constantly be soaping them thinking it was brake dust... Love what you have, thats what I say!
