I have been lurking around in this forum for a while but never posted, so here's my first...
So I called Dan up at Wheeldude.com and couldn't decide between Yamaha Black and Hyper Black.Â* I was partial to Hyper since I thought Matte and Gloss black seemed played out (no offense I still love the Yamaha Black).Â* He did'nt have any Hyper and there was a short wait, so I bought some Royal Steel Gray's and decided to try out this new process called PermaStar by Goodrich Technology:

This stuff is awesome!Â* Vacuum processed powdercoat, with the look and sheen of chrome, less the weight.Â* The workmanship is backed by a warranty (I believe 5-7 years), and they do wheel repair also (bent & curb rash wheels)

AFTER (stuffed with 275/35/18 Falken 452's, Rr fenders rolled, Front fender liners heated/pushed for clearance):
