The powder coating looks nice. But they did not re-machine the machined areas. And they used a grey powder coat vs. a silver.

The ones I had done some years ago are a little more OEM-flavored, but still not completely original. The wheel was painted/coated, the machined areas were re-machined (you lose a bit of metal doing this) and then the wheel was clear-coated. See some of the pictures in http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/pict...s/twheels.html to see what I am talking about.
