You could ask around at any auto place, someone should know. I have a guy doing my rims for 25 bucks a rim. So if you do find someone to do it, make sure your not getting ripped off!

Powder coating will cost you closer to $150 per rim, especially if they do it correctly and sand blast them down to the metal before they do it. Powder coating heats them up to 400 degrees when it's done. Sounds more like you are just getting them painted for $25 each. Definitely not powder coating.

I was quoted about $85 per rim over at Premier Coating on Evans. That's cuz the inside of the rim is painted and clear coated. The outside is polished. Not sure on painted rims.
That was for a matte black powder coatto match the matte black stripes.

If that's the case......do it! That's a great price. What color are you thinking about? Is black chrome a powdercoated option?

Did you send the lug nuts with to be powder coated or did you by them in black separately? I noticed you can buy them in black on a website.

I do like how yours turned out, i would like to see what a flat black would look on the car though

I did not get mine powder coated yet, the guy i talk to is getting married on the 17th so I'm waiting until he gets back from his honeymoon to talk to him about it.

antz · 10-08-2009, 05:17 PM

I sent the lug nuts in to get powdercoated also, and as for the center plastic cap i bought black spray paint to match the black on the rims
