      And fwiw, $125-150 is a good going rate for a quality refinish, so I disagree that you got raped. Are hartge center caps plastic too? How well did they match them?
      The quality of the powdercoat is amazing! it matched the caps perfectly. one thing i would do though, next time, is to make sure that the powdercoat does not go in too thick in the hub area! i had to get a dremel out, and grind down so that the caps would snap back on! only 2 tabs broke, one one of teh caps...thank goodness for plastic-weld!

              Your car got out of the paint shop alot faster than mine. Mine's been in there for almost 2 months.

              Your's looks good. And I'm partial to the BBS rims.

              Nürburgring info

                It took about 2 months! THANKS!

                I sold the Hartge, and just kept the BBS.

                Maybe looking at WRD Chevlons or 16" BBS RS.

                  Was feeling the car until you sold the Hartge's and went with the ultra-played-out-replicas -everywhere BBS.

                      Played out or not..... BBS> Hartage

                      Nothing LOOKS better, might be why they are so popular.

                      JMHO....
