Not bad. But if they were mine I would take them to a professional and have them powder coated black again.

MkII VW GTI rims
95% positive

I had a set of those on my 83 jetta for a while. I had lip in the original machined silver and the rest spray painted black, looked pretty good. Those wouldn't be worth powdercoating, the prep work alone would cost more than the rims, and all the sharp lines wouldn't take to the powder very well, a fresh layer of paint would be easier and do a better job.

Good find for $50 though

you should be slapped! 16's are perfect for a rex/4g civic... why wouldn't you go 16's? my wheel size is still smaller than stock also.
