To Powder Coat OEM 21" Wheels or Not ... Discussion ???
#17
finished PC and mounting the new wheels ....
had them Powder Coated at ArmorTech ... the old guy there has over 30 years experience PC and doing other types of electroplating and metalwork ... he did a great job of taking down the curb rash ... he did mention the epoxy job that Porsche puts on these wheels is very tough and high quality .... I had them redone in the regular "Porsche Silver" .... I paid a bit high $150 per wheel, but this guy is the best in the region! ... so far it's been over 1 month ... no issues

Also ... did my brakes (myself) at a place called garageyourself ... I live in a condo ... so can't work on my auto there ... this guy is a life saver ... had all the tools necessary, rented a bay with life and tools ... he even ordered a special torque wrench so I could torque the front caliper bolts to Porsche specs!
Brembo Rotors and Brembo ceramic pads in front and Brembo Rotors and Bosch Quietcast in the back ... ALL new hardware, bolts, cables ... etc!

Nice update of hardware might just be the ticket to complete your project.
We are working on that same set, post photos when done...
The last time we did this same set here was the results.....
Gloss Black at an angle
Gloss Black face
Continued the Gloss finishing all the way through
Contact points were covered in order to have a perfect match during installation, notice the finish is nice even behind each spoke.
The final product mounted.
