My thread here has a couple.
Did you go with any of the ones in your thread? The dust is so annoying.

No actually. I sort of put it off to the side since I'm getting new wheels and they'll be much easier to clean and I wash my car every week anyway I didn't think it was worth it. Plus they're matte bronze which hides the dust too.

Though my brakes started squealing more and now it's kind of come back into my mind. Probably going to go with Hawk out of those.

I hope you're talking about powder coating them black and not actually painting them black. I have mine powder coated and they came out perfect. Wish this was a factory option.

I'm sure it's powder coating. SA said 'paint', but I was questioning that myself (asked him and he still used that term). It would be warrantied work at their install shop on site at the dealer. They do good work, and can match it to that color as well. Yeah I wish it were standard option. When I selected 'black' for the 788s, I thought this is what I would be getting or close to it.

Wheels can be sprayed perfectly fine. I had some compomotives done in a titanium colour in 2002. They still look great today. Just get them done by someone that knows what they are doing and get lots of clear coat.

Ye. Just sprayed. Took them to a proper spray shop. Not sure if they sanded them back or not but I told them the bmw moonstone colour I wanted and Ye pretty much looks way better in my opinion that the two tone stock colour.

Iv always been an AMG fanboy. Few years ago drove a few M cars and loved them instantly.
M2 comp is such a good car, absolutely love it
