Title: Refurb Nogaro Alloys
Post by: ub7rm on 13 May 2018, 10:50

Hello,

Wondering if anyone has powder coated their nogaro (std GTD) wheels and can share some pictures?  Mine are in need of a refresh and as much as I like the black / diamond cut look its just not durable.  Any inspiration out there?

Plenty of images on google I've always found black or dark colours make the wheels look smaller  :smiley:

Yes agreed, I don't want them black though it might work well enough against tornado red. I see someone did their santiago's in 'smoked chrome' which looks really smart.  But I can't see many pictures of the nogaros in anything other than standard.

Shadow chrome looks good too had my old m5 wheels done that colour years ago

Anthracite looks good with Tornado Red. Post #86 in this thread from another forum;
