    Alpina replicas-getting them re-finished opions on color

    So i am going to refinish my 17" alipina wheels due to some minor curb rash and a few bends the seller did not know about. Trying to figure out what color to do, since they are not real its not going to bother me if they are not factory color. I was thinking something like the E39 M5 shadow chrome? I have a faded burgunrot four door.

    I feel like a darker grey would look awesome. Just a few shades darker than the original color. Upload a pic if you do it, I was thinking of Doing these to mine too!

      I had my heart set on powder coating my iX basketweaves in the shadow chrome too. Great thread on another forum.
      Had them done at Prince Wheel Services, 1398 Walkup Avenue, Monroe, North Carolina 28110.
      Ended up going with matching original finish. Very pleased with Prince Wheel Services.

        Thank you for the info on Prince Wheel Service, we have a company we use through work and every one seems to be very happy with them. Still haven't decided what color to go with, starting to think the factory color and then sell them.
