New Color on my DPE monoblok ST7!

[A4Ber]

I asked my friend to do a custom finish on my old dpe set from my b8. Here is the out come.

I actually bought another set of HRE instead, so I am selling these set of dpe with Tires and TPMS. Send me a pm if you are interested. He actually painted black on the inside.

Hot damn, that is a sexy finish! Gloss charcoal?

Yup!

Are those powder coated or painted?

They are painted. My friend does owns a body shop and he painted them for me.

Those are nice. I wonder how they'd look on a Quartz Gray???

I think they'd look awesome on Quartz. Nice and aggressive! Since you're both in SF, it would be an easy transaction for both of you.[race]

Haha... Well I'm a little concerned about whether it will look good if the wheel is a darker gray than the body. But maybe we should just sit them next to car and see. :)

They'll be darker than Quartz for sure, which is a good thing! They should look aggressive with the darker finish wheels on the slightly lighter grey paint. Post up a direct side shot of your car and I'll put together a photoshop so you can see how they'd look.

Those look amazing - I'd really like to see them mounted on a car... come on someone by them! [:p]

[Cargo8]

what are the specs of those wheels?

[A4Ber]

19x8.5 et37 24lbs

I don't know much about wheels... do they take the same size tires that I have stock on my 19" tri-spoke wheels?

Yes, your stock tires would fit.

That would be great! It's a not-so-great iPhone photo but hopefully it'll work.

Thanks, looks cool. I don't think I'd want a bumpier ride though living in the city with all the rough streets.

You should ride in mine with lowered suspensions later. It actually feels better than the stock one : )

Oh really? Yeah I'd definitely like to check it out then.

BTW, I'm heading to Livermore on Saturday to get the windows tinted. Thanks for the recommendation!

[Blake P]

Tint your windows and it's game over...

[SebGood]

Thanks Blake! Looks pretty cool. I'll have to go check them out in person.

[SebGood]

Checked them out in person. They look pretty sick. I'll check it out once the tint is done on Saturday and then decide. Took a pick of the two S4s:
