Powder Coated V-SPOKES ?

Well
Now I've seen few s-lites powder coated, bullets chromed, etc

but

I have never seen anything done with v-spokes..!

I THINK it will look fine if the color choice is right..

any ideas?

If you don't mind leaving off that silver or white plastic cover that covers the wheel lugbolts I think you should be fine with whatever color you decide. I personally would love to see my 16 inch V spoke in black on my IB/W Cooper! :D I originally had the 15 inch holies so I still have the black lugbolts (the black lugbolts are for "exposed" wheel bolts as in the S-lites and holies........but for the V-spokes they are just a weird metal color.

Get you some black lug bolts at the dealer (or online) and you should be all set! Good luck!

Cheers,
