It is brutal, but having a Camaro for the experienes you get, is completely worth it

And that's a lot of $$$ saved just as I thought!

Looks amazing!
I have! They look great and it's exactly what I want to do but I've got the road hazard warranty which replaced any damage to my wheels and tires with a $50 deductible so messing with them voids the warranty I think.

I've been thinking about trying to strike a deal with the dealership I got them from. See the road hazard covers curb rash, blowouts, and whatnot, so if I powedercoat them that really doesn't affect anything. I'm thinking of proposing to the dealership that if I powdercoat them and then I get curb rash, I give them the rim and $50 deductible just the same and I get a new one and then have to go re-powdercoat it with my own money. Honestly this is no more trouble for the dealership to do! Just comes down to getting them to agree (especially on paper) that they'll do that.
Whatcha think?
