Seems like paint might chip off and waste your money to me.

Maybe $100 ish? I want to do mine gloss black. But I'll be going with the DIY route, much more enjoyable for me than paying someone.

PC is not THAT expensive to get down. Its the PITA to break down the wheels, get them done, get the tires remounted... blah blah blah...
If you prep right, the painting can be done for cheap. Heck you can DIY as been said. If its done right, it will last. The RS wheels are painted. Just make sure you prep them good. Its all in the prep. Get ALL the wax and dirt and EVERYTHING off. Give them the white glove test. Scuff them up with sandpaper. Apply a couple coats of paint per the instructions. Clear, wet sand, polish and they will look GREAT! Just dont rush. |

I know of a guy that did his own with just a few cans of spray, and they turned out great.
