I was not on the spot but I believe just one coat. How much did it cost you? For a job like you described, my quote was like 800 - 1200. So I just passed.

FYI I am getting staggered 21x9, 21x10.5. Tires are: 245/35/21 Front | 285/30/21 Rear

I am thinking about chrome delete, not a big fan of wrapping though. But Orange seems interesting. Got a photo?

Yeah, happy new year. :) Seems the best investment so far.

good point. I am gonna get some dirt soon. :)

Update: Got it painted last week. Done in about 4 hours. Turns out good, little lighter than I thought, but definitely better than the original black. :-)

I went with weather tech. Have been using their products since 2011 on 4 cars, no regret.

Just confirmed that he's using the same high grade paint as comes on Bimmer and Porsche. it's not epoxy though. I like that for 50 extra, you can have custom "yellow" paint made as well. But for me, I am actually fine with porsche yellow. :-)

that looks awesome on those grey turbine wheels. Thx for voting.

I am not 100% sure, but I think your assumption is 90% accurate. :-) I was initially quoted 125 per caliper, but somehow he was able to lower it to 100 since our locations are not far from each other. I will keep this thread updated once it's done. I see people spend 1k on such projects and it...

That's lot of info. Much appreciate it.

looks good. is there a shade code (for that yellow) that I have to tell the shop? The sample I saw from my mobile shop looks slightly brighter than urs.

will do. Looking to have it painted in 10 days.

Thx for the vote. I agree the yellow caliper looks awesome on those turbo trims.

sounds good. I am planning to do chrome deletion too.
