We can do the same process with a satin clear, but the HTM accent will not be clear and bright. It will look dull and cloudy. We could powdercoat the part satin black, then cut the face and not clear it, but this would create maintenace issues and the appearance would be short lived.

Thanks, Mark
Thanks for the explanation. Could you then please give me an estimate for the same exact wheels as shown in 18x7 ( 4.0" BS) and 18x10 (5.5" BS), 5x4.75 bolt pattern.
Thanks, Mark
