No idea but I think the machined face would look better. Stephs car has black wheels with machined face from the factory. I don't hate it

I usually hate black with machined faces even more than all black but I find those to be pretty hot for some reason. Also gonna see how much it would cost to powder my bumpers and roof rack :oops:

well I had my first rubbing event today while going through a mild ditch in my friends front yard. Pretty sure it’s the back of the front tires rubbing lightly on the fender liners. Might try adding the 1/4” spacers I had on with the LTZ20s and see if it helps but I kinda doubt it.

Talked to my powder coater today and he quoted me $125 per bumper and $100 for the roof rails. So $350 and everything with be black except the chrome bar across the grill.

I was contemplating cutting some of the liner out or making one from metal which would be loud and awful. Not sure why I didn’t think of the heat gun but I’ll probably try it tomorrow thank you!
I found if you heat until the plastic just gets a little shiny it is workable. The trick is to hold it in place. Like wedge something in there and let it cool.
