What do you guys think?

I am going to get my cookie cutter rims cleaned up. I'm thinking about getting the completely powder coated black and using crome lug nuts and the crome center caps with the colored Porsche accent on it. What do you guys think?

I'd stick to how the cookies look, or get them powdercoated/painted to the color of your car. (or maybe just the center, have the lip just polished).

Or if you really wanna paint the rims all black, I'd get some black center caps with the Porsche crest in color, but again black lug nuts (in all cases).

Now that's my suggestion, it's your car, so do whatever YOU think looks good. (well, except chrome, you try to do that, and we have a problem!). p)

I was also thinking about powder coating them the same color as the car, which is Copenhagen blue. I'm just not sure if I should do the whole thing including the center caps or just the part thats black now but then what do I do with the center caps? Should I leave the Outer part of the rim polished and then get the inside powder coated light blue? I gotta do something because my rims are in horrible shape. Thanx for replies.

I think your idea is way cool. If I was to do this, I would also go with the chrome nuts and painted crest center cap.
