Wheels back from the powdercoat shop

I just got my 19inch Forgeline VR3 wheels powdercoated black. Flat black centers with a super gloss black lip. I also left the rivets alone. These wheels are for my Viper GTS. But they came out so wicked. That Im gonna get these exact wheels and do the same for my EVO X. Gonna get a set of 18inch though... Here are the pics..

Thanks guys..

On the cost. They would of charged me $800 bucks. Keep in mind 1 piece wheels are cheaper, and easier to do. Anyhow, I was able to talk them down to $680. Cash deal..
The weather here in CA has been real $hity, rain and lots of wind.. I was dying to put these wheels on ,the day I got them. Looks like its going to have to wait until end of this week..
