Re: powdercoating wheels.

$3.50 - black wheel paint at autozone... spray some clear coat over it and it will be somewhat glossy.. might not last that long but with a lil sand paper and another 5 bux you can redo em haha... might not look pro but thats what id do..

Not to jack this thread or anything, but I was looking at putting a clear coat type of deal on my stock OZ F1 wheels (special option for 99's), but I don't know what to use or hows the best way to do it. I kinda want to protect the paint on them, and at the same time help prevent that damn brake dust from accumulating so fast, my wheels are filthy 2 weeks after I clean them.
