hey guys...
i found a powder coating place here in arizona called.. ARIZONA POWDER COAT. i highly recommend if any of you are looking for a good quality coating. i have a silver 545i, and i could not stand the flashy chrome crap i had on my e60. they where pricy but degraded the 5. here is a pic of the wheels i had on it. dont ask what i was thinking. i know they are awefull. anyway... now i have the matte black powder coated factory wheel on and i love it. i know not too many people here on the forum like the black on silver combo. but ill figure out a way to make it mesh... let me know what you guys think. pics of the matte black are on there way.
