Hello!
Curious to see if anyone has powder coated their stock wheels in satin black? I've got the 20" style 5095 in gloss dark gray and looking to powder coat them. My local shop offered either satin black or gloss black, leaning satin black so far.
Any photos would be super helpful!

 

Personally I'm a fan of the gloss black finish, but I have all of the gloss black finishings spec'd. This pic is just after I finished re-installing the rear bumper that I had off to get the silver parts painted gloss black. These obviously aren't the 5095's, you might be the first to powder coat those ones black, I haven't noticed any pics anywhere.

 

@Iceman153 - that there is a "Pain in the butt"!! Just reinstalled my bumper and whoa that took a lot more than my Series IIa.

 

Lol, oh man popping out all the silver trim pieces was a nightmare, this was 2 weeks ago now and my fingers are still sore from all the pushing and prying. Ontop of that the rear camera is held in by single use melt on tabs, took way longer than I thought, but worth it.

 

Yep @Iceman153 , I too still have that finger pain (like learning to use a guitar) and red spots under my nails. Hard to type! Now I know why Simon has Tyler doing all the panel removal...

 

Freshly powder-coated.

 

That's a nice looking body color combo!

 

Here is mine in the factory matte finish. Love the look and easy to take care of. I applied a ceramic wheel coating when I first picked the car up and it’s super easy to keep them looking clean.

 

Which coating did you use? I had an I can't remember coating on a BMW years ago and it was the best thing ever. I barely ever had to wipe them and they were spotless.

Recently tried Opti-Coat and it was meh.

 

@Vin - I'm usually not a fan of black vehicles as I get them too dirty & they are a PITA to clean, but that looks DAMN nice. Brilliant job there.

@4Corsa - Love the white. If I hadn't gotten a Habuka, that was going to be my choice. Classic Defender look there.
