MRR 1LE Rims

Quick question, i'm about to order these from Phastek in gloss black....i saw on some thread and i can't find it now, that MRR offers another clear coating for $100 a wheel. Is that just for the other colors or is it for the black as well and should I get that coating if Phastek can get it for me?

Thanks

Joe

Call Ricardo at phastek and ask on Monday. May even be able to work a better price.

MMR will powdercoat ANY wheels they sell for $100 per wheel before they send them to Ricardo...... with powder coat they are much more resistant to abrasion, scratching dings, etc. It will add a week onto the order.

Well, idk....they are telling me they don't do it. oh well....


Hello Joseph,
I just spoke to Ricardo. The only clear coat option is for the Brushed Finished wheel. That is because the brushed finish is bare aluminum.
Thank you,

Hey Mike, ok….yeah after we spoke I posted the question on the forum and they both told me to contact Ricardo at Phastek and that MRR did that. Weird. Did you ask Ricardo? 

Hello Joseph,
This is Mike, I spoke to you last week and we are processing your wheel order today. I contacted MRR and they do not offer any king of clear coat option for there wheels.
Thank you,

Name Joseph
Message I called last week to cancel the order for the Borla exhaust and replaced it with the MRR 017 rims. A few guys on Camaro6 forum said to contact Ricardo at Phastek and to ask if MRR will apply a clear powdercoat to them before they are shipped. Can someone get back to me on that? I might like to do that.

Mighunter, all the MRR wheels have clearcoat applied from the factory. As we spoke, it is not necessary to apply more clear to our wheels.
Similar to your car paint.
