I've done on a few motorcycles that I've had. It definitely looks good but as stated before...you have to stay on top of it.

Maybe its just me but for $1000.00, I'd think you could get another nice set of wheels. Maybe even get a similar set for much less and try/do it yourself. Its really not hard.

All finishes has drawbacks and appeal. Just depends on which you like the most.

It's not something I'd do again. Partly because it creates a maintenance type of situation, but mostly because I don't care for a non-stock look. That's on my Boxster as well as any of my motorcycles. I make very few alterations to my vehicles. My Boxster will never be anything other than stock.
