Yes, powder coating them myself is an option. Too bad you can't just order them in black like with the GT4.
What's the big deal anyway?

I assume this is for the struts and wing tips? Probably not all that much cheaper to do it after market.
EDIT: Actually, might just be the uprights considering this image from the EVO review. I think the uprights/wheels work here with black tips:

Interesting how he holds the wheels...not a 3 and 9 kind of guy but rather a 3 and 10!

Just the struts? That's a huge ripoff. Just get them powder coated or wrapped for a few hundred tops.

I will stick with LO…there is something about UV that causes me to think about drifting round the Vatican or changing my normally conservative clothing for something more flamboyant…..

I'm biased. Everything looks better with black wheels to me.
