Looks good - and white!
Gonna be fun cleaning too! (but way better w/ that good slick coating + a good acrylic sealer/wax like klasse)

That makes sense about having additional corrosion/yellowing resistance on light/translucent/clear p-coating. Can you please ask him about the specific brand/trade-name & where to buy, if it's available to the public?

Here are the wheels for my VFR I just finished in smoke chrome/polish w/ clear:

Thanks! I'm boring, I've had white rims on all three of my GSXRs. Btw Kerry, those rims look fucking sweet! Seriously, and a lot of work as well!

Nice work, those are tits.

Sorry Tig, my F2 had white rims, and there is no way in hell I'm ever doing that again.

Yea, ever since I ordered the new body kit, I seem to be less concerned with keeping this one clean...

That's one good thing about powdercoat. It seems to be "slicker" and with the wax I have one them, I'm feeling pretty good about maintenance! Besides nothing is worse than chrome in my book!
