Nice choice of color for a BB Kat, at first I thought you had some volks on as well (good knockoffs) and I was thinking that you should have kept those rims instead of the stock gold ones.

THE FINISHED PRODUCT:
OEM 18" rims powdercoated gold and wrapped in BFG G-Force KDW 2 225/45/18 tires:
Bad pics, all I had was the camera on the phone before it got too dark to take pics, so I'll update with better ones in the next day or so. But for now, you get the idea.

The PC'ing has been holding up great, although I did have to get it re-done (free of charge) once, cause they had a problem with the clear coat flaking off (they over-cured it), so they redid it free of charge, and I had them leave the clear off this time.
I think bronze would look nice. I had that color on my red Si when I had it.

Definetely powdercoat. Paint chips fast, and while it may look fine from afar, it'll look like crap up close. Then you just look like a ricer. :P
The clear just gave it more shine, and they said they had never had anything clip like that, and thankfully they guaranteed their work and re-did it. I actually like it better now that there's none, it has a bit more of a matte finish. Make sure you post pics once you get them done.
