I always liked the monochrome body color turbines with the black xr-7's... black with silver accents... would look hot

I dont know if I'd do them in a powder coat. What I would do is Paint them black and use the technique that is listed on Sams' FoxThundercats. That would leave a satin finish on the surface, and black in the holes of the snowflake. That would look mean on a black car.

How about the main rim black, the outside lip and T-Bird Logo silver, and the little teeth things red.

If you are going to be painting turbine wheels like they were factory on an 88 XR-7, I have a method that works pretty well. Just before Carlisle last June, I refinished all my wheels and they turned out really good. But thats if your putting on a turbine style wheel.
