pics of wheels powdercoated

these are 993 wheels 8x17 70 et and 9x17 55 et. I had them done in "black chrome" by a 928er at "Teknicote" powdercoating. I figured this color would be interesting anyway and might look good on a black car.
Figured you guys would be interested because the color is so unusual.
I'll post pics later when they are on the car.
first pic is "before"

Where is Teknicote located? Have they ever done 928 intake manifolds and cam covers? Can you pass along the contact information. Thanks,

Are they black chromed or powdercoated? Black chrome is what I recommended for somebody on here a while ago. That's probably what my car will get because it'll be a long while before I can afford a set of Kinesis K18Rs.
