GEN 2 Painting factory beadlocks

[FordPerf Addict]

Hey guys, I got my white 2019 a few months ago with the bead-lock wheels. Thinking I really want to paint the wheels black. I just love the storm trooper type look of the 2018.
Maybe I should have gone no bead-locks and painted the stock wheels but it’s too late now.
Has anyone done this? I just would like to see what it looks like. I love the physical design of the wheel I just want that contrast with a darker wheel color.
Not sure the grey is dark enough for my liking

Also has anyone painted the standard 19 wheels black yet? Maybe a swap or a sell /trade could be in my future

Have them powder coated. Had mine done, they aren’t beadlocks, but they look great. So much better than stock

If you do end up powder coating the stock deadlocks could you post up some pics? I was loosely thinking of doing the same thing but the slate gray color is growing on me and the hassle of it all i'm not really looking forward to. I have a 19 white also.

Not beadlocks but may help give you an idea of how they look powder coated.

If I do I for sure will, I won’t do anything until the spring or summer though. I do love the look of the wheels I just want that startrooper look to an extent. Maybe a hood or side graphic will fix my itch

Just get some PlastiDip and try it on one...if you don't like it, peel it off.

Actually, this is a really good idea. If you really like it keep it till the plastidip starts to have issues (chips etc.) then get it powder coated. I don't know how much it is to get power coated but if you are okay with a cast wheel, I know you can get a slick looking set of Methods for just a few hundred a wheel.
