I'm thinking doing this to the factory 19' sport wheels. Anyone have photos of these or ANY stock wheels p coated? Thx.

 

Ok I think it's possible...anyway I'm in Italy and I see on the car configurator, you can get them painted in color body for € 1064...hope I can help in some way

 

A buddy of mine did his black - looks good...I'll see if I can get a picture of them for you. He's got a silver 997...

 

I'm thinkin to do that too for my RINSPEED wheels

 

I wasnt aware that this was a Porsche factory option, but 1000 eur is expensive! You can do it aftermarket in the states for about $600 (450 eur)

 

Are you shooting for a particular color/finish? We paint them regularly with a technique that builds quite heavily...not just a spray or two. Might be another option. Just wondering what you are attempting to achieve looks-wise with powdercoating.

 

Looking to do the same to my OEM wheels - powder coat.

Have had plenty of mortorcycle wheels and frames and misc parts done over the years..

 

byron has his lobster done in black. although i am not sure if he powder coated or painted them. they look good.

 

I had my wheels painted black. They are great. For wheels paint is the way to go for me because I would have had to wait 6 months or more on Maui. Also I have heard powdercoating weakens the wheels. I am no expert but if you want I can post pics. Thanks Trovan now please find me a set of black GT3 wheels.

doesn't arling have a set for sale, but in silver??

 

I painted my stock wheels orange .. They held up great on track day and I haven't had any issues so far.

 

I'm thinking of painting my seal 997 wheels in body color too. Any Pics of seal on seal wheels?
THX

 

Is this true?

 

I have heard pros and cons about powder coating. It has been discussed here and you should probably do a search. I presume painting is the way to go if you ask me because all the wheels I see from manufacturers come painted. Plus on Maui there is only one powder coater and 6 months wait at least.
Remember opinions are like a$$holes and everyone has one including me.
