Anyone got any pics of the stock 5 stars in black? I am considering powdercoating mine, and wanted to see what it would look like. I think it would look aggressive as hell.

Now I remember that car. It is awesome. It's funny, I never noticed the tips before. Yes, those need to go, but thanks for pics!
I think I may have to consider Gun Metal also.

Are they able to powdercoat the faces, but leave the insides polished. I wonder how that would look. It would give it a multi-piece wheel look as you're looking in.

If you have the 5 stars already great, but I wouldn't go out and buy the 5 stars and powdercoat them. There are too many other wheel choices out there that are better and most likely cheaper.

Yes, they came on my car. I am not the type of person to go out and buy factory wheels. I will be getting more Iforged wheels in a few months, but also wanted to get my stocks powdercoated for track days.

Give me some time to find a B/W GTS pic that will work with one of the above posted pics. I looked through what I have and didnt see one that would work well. I will Google around and see what I come up with.

Sounds good. I think the Gray ones would look great.

Gunmetal > Black. I think black wheels always need to have a chromed lip. In this case, the gunmetal color just looks better.
