Powder Coating 351M Wheels

Guys,

Opinions appreciated!!

I am powder coating my wheels and calibers. What color do you recommend on carbon black?

I am thinking gun metal or ferric grey on the wheels but unsure of the color for the calibers.

I vote blue calipers. I think it'll go well with CB.

Before you do powdercoat, check out Duplicolor and DipYourCar.com. They get great reviews.

I am having the same dilemma. Thinking blue calipers and match the car color for the rims.
