Should I Powdercoat?

[y2dgone]

Well the shop I use for powdercoating has quoted me $125 to powdercoat my rims. I want to coated black. Think I should do it?

[dmeech]

yeah if thats for 4 wheels thats a great deal.

[aveosummit]

Yeah, I say go ahead GIT-R-Done

of course if i do this i'll have to paint my car black...

i always thought black wheels would go good on whatever, just make sure you keep those tires lookin wet

Glad I was digging around and found this thread.

I have always hated the rims. Don't like the style and most especially, the color;




I would be happy with black.

Can't afford new ones, so I was thinking of spray painting them. Then someone told me I should have them powder coated. I'm looking into where to do that out here. Want to price it so I can start digging in the couch for change to save up.

Whoever has had it done, are you happy with the results, or do you wish you had just gotten new ones?

Thanks

Thanks cyber3d.

I dunno if I like it
Buying new ones is looking like a better choice.
