    OEM Y-spokes powdercoated satin black.

    Not sure whether I like it, it's a more sinister look than the polished split spokes.

    I kind of wish I had gone more graphite gray or gunmetal (which is what I'm getting the split spokes powdercoated to now) but we'll see, it may grow on me. Def want to try out the mich supersports when I wear these out.

    Hard to tell from the crappy pic, but I'm pretty sure I'll like them when I see them in person on Sunday.

    Re: OEM Y-spokes powdercoated satin black.

    Just got car back late last night from IND distribution. So now I'm about to clean it up myself for tomorrows rally. My guy couldn't get the tints done, so that's all there is left to do (other than a possible detail).

    I've had great success in just using a 3 stage Meguiars detail myself. Just don't have the ambition, nor the time right now...

    Let me know how much your guy charged when I see ya tomorrow.
