[QUOTE="suicidekings, post: 15328689, member: 121833"] Little update. My fears were confirmed, the original shop that powder coated my wheels no longer has the color/metallic mixture. My next step is to send a sample out to Tennessee to have the color attempted to be matched. A lot of the local shops won't try it because of the metallic. If the sample doesn't come through I will end up re-coating all 4 wheels which is even more money out of my pocket which is beginning to become irritating. I ended up working on the car a little bit tonight. I put my steering shaft boot in the car, since the details make the car.... I ditched the factory sheet metal screws for some matching bolts [url=https://flic.kr/p/W1hcd1][img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4291/35446424964_3f8fdb3f99_b.jpg[/img]05BFB47A-6BAA-4722-9B0C-80CBDAA065C1_zpshtiayaue[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/92446505@N02/]|SK Photography|[/url], on Flickr Of course with my shit luck lately, the radius edge ended up cracking when I tightened down the bolts. Not sure you can see it but if you look close you can make it out..... Im going to try to hit it with some touch up paint. [/QUOTE]
