New Pics: Powdercoated (BMW-M6)

I've just had the wheels powdercoated and there's a bit of a better angled picture of the exhaust. I have a lot more planned for this car, this isn't even the beginning. Don't worry, though, no overly done exterior mods to come.

I like the wheels. However, I prefer the quad tips as well. That exhaust looks like it belongs on a Supra. No offense.

No offense, but you're ruining the car. Never been a fan of black powder-coated wheels, unless it's done tastefully - but, with that aside, what's with the black/red roundel emblem and Subaru exhaust tips?

exhaust looks horrible, it looks makeshift not like it really belongs there. the car is way too high for looking all aggressive all blacked out, u need to drop that biatch. i don't like colored roundels but if ur gonna do it make it red at least, the color looks faded. add a time attack ring and i think it will make ur wheels pop more. sorry it looks choppy, too compressed.

I've been into the import scene for a while now, and I have to agree that those tips would be more suited to something a little less high class than an M6. Of course at the end of the day it's what you like that matters. I do however like the black powdercoating; but would avoid the Time Attack stripe. Even the import guys are thinking it's getting played out.

Slightly OT: But what can any experienced 6speeders tell me if Powdercoating forged rims actually degrades the structural integrity? I've heard so many contradicting answers and information, that I can't decide if I want to powdercoat or paint mine (forged as well).
