Wheel Sticker

Decided to change the color of my competition wheels (359). Just not feeling the black after 3 years. It just looks like a black hole in every photo.

Anyways, other than ebay, anyone where I can order the "//m" wheel stickers from?

Better off ordering from dealer or if you plan on painting the wheels more often than once, go the FCP route for that lifetime replacement ;D

also gun metal imo

Gun metal gets mine as well (if OEM is not an option).

I just ordered a set from amazon. Two of the wheels got refinished when I got the car, so I doubt it is oem decals that’s on there right now anyways. Also why I want to refinish them now because I got a rock chip on one and two got scuffed at the bead from the tire shop. So might as well change the colour while I’m at it. Definitely not planning on doing this often.

Decided... going with a gun metal with a hint of bronze, in satin finish. If I didn't have to head out for a work meeting I'll still be there looking at colour chips

Have you considered a PVD electroplating? Not too many places do it in house but I always fancied a set of 359's PVD'd in black ice. It's a super hard finish where they do a powder coated base coat before the electroplating which makes for a bullet proof finish. Somewhere local to me do it for $225/wheel with a 4-8 week turn around so I guess they send them out. Not exactly convenient but I think it would look stellar on 359's.
