310m style wheels in black

Hi guys anybody has or seen 310m wheels in black (mat, satin or gloss)

I'm thinking to either powder coat mine $550+ or Plasti Dip them $70+

I know powder coating is better option but I can find brand new rims for about $800 so it really doesn't make sense. Plasti Dip might not look as good but will do for temporary solution.

Let me know

Pics inserted above. I'm very tempted by the 612m in black or not. Some cheap 22" versions on ebay. Can't wait to see how yours end up...

I'm thinking I like it, I also think I like them more in gloss!
Most likely will go for powdercoating $550 + about $80 for mounting and balance!

I mentioned before that I can find new rims for $800, I can but not in the perfect fitment when it comes to staggered setup, most of the "cheap" wheels don't come with more than 20x8.5 front width which is def not great and for the 20x10 wouldn't need to pay at least twice more! besides I'm a big fan of 310m style and enjoyed them for 3+ years already, little change of color should help for another 3

I think the pix above, at least to me, look satin. Gloss would be my choice too. The ebay link shows gloss and they look great.

Thanks to everybody who helped make the decision about powdercoating finish, I think it came out pretty good!

Wow man, you got that done quick! Looks fantastic, but I'm partial to black wheels... totally changes the look of your car and ties everything together, (for me at least).

Appreciate it!

I had tires in route so I had to act quickly
I found place not too far from me and they told me they will get it done in 2-3 working days, in my case it took little longer, they had some electrical issues in the shop, we had one snow storm in the middle of the week, I had to make couple of trips to the shop to bring over tires and TPMS (I wanted them to mount the tires) but at the end it took about a week which is very reasonable!
