Powdercoat on "blade" 5 RS3 wheels

wuta3 · Jan 16, 2021

Hi all,

I just got my wheels powdercoated in satin black. They are the 2018 OEM blade type wheels. They were a bit kerbed, had a previous referb and didn't work with the green wrap.

I think these blade wheels with the black/chrome-face look really lovely in a non-gloss black. What you think?

Edit: Manchester Powder Coating did them. The finish is flawless.

They compliment the wrap nicely

not sure I'd go for them on a none satin wrap though!

Any one else powdercoated their 19" blade alloys?
My front offside is on it's second repair (damaged by prev owner), and nearside front is on it's 1st repair.
So I'm thinking of longer term options should they get damaged again, and not keen on switching to rotors.

A mate had his powder coated in a satin silver, look really good!

He also had his calipers painted blue as you can see and again looks great, although personally I prefer the standard red.

Aye, the silver looks great! Good to know there are other options for these wheels after a 2nd diamond cut.

My car is Panther Black, so would probably want to go as light a silver as possible.
