I think it would set your car off a treat it you sprayed them that colour.

How much did it cost u 2 spray the cam cover?

powder coated, not sprayed, cost me £55 for the two ,the lexmaul strut brace was a bitch to do apperently.... but hay ho, both look ace, the wheels will be about £30 each for powdercoating in that colour.

How much are you looking at for doing a set of wheels in this? Also how hard wearing is it? If it is sprayed rather then baked surely it will be softer?
