powdercoat prices

[SLIK4]

i've decided i really want to powdercoat my steelies silver. i think it would look frikin sweet :) anybody have a general idea how much it would cost to get all four done? i dont want to attempt a diy on this project either. not doing anything special just strait silver.

EDIT: now that i have decided i def want to powdercoat. what color should i go with on my silver sedan?

I want to say around $200 for all four. But that's prices I have been quoted on out here in SoCal. Don't know if the pricing there would be different.

Depends on how involved the project in, something like steelies, yes, around $150-$200 probably, bigger wheels or things that require more prep/more coats. Usually around $300-$350

awsome. i was hoping it would be a considerable amount cheaper than buying all new wheels. plus i want to be different. you don't see that very often

we charge 125/wheel at bmw. but that's taking it off, breaking it down, sending it across town, waiting, and putting it all back together.

so...idk how much the guy charges us per wheel. but there's more involved than just cleaning and coating...it has to be sandblasted, cleaned and all that stuff. also, if he's good he'll straighten it out for ya too

yeah, we don't have a straightener yet, we wish, but we have an in house mounter and balancer so it saves you like an extra $150 from most places.

We have a few colored steelies for fun, but we noticed the most noticeable wheels that girls love are the neon greenies.

So, wait. You want the plain jane steel wheels to be pc'ed silver?

I am not a huge fan of the steel wheels even though the covers that came with mine actually look ok.

Too bad your not closer to St. Louis my guy there is awesome.

just sand them and rattlecan those suckers, i rather buy new wheels than pay that much for the silver steelies, just my 2 pesos

^ That is what I would do. Then live with them for a while, and then decide if it's worth the cost after you know you'll keep them forever.

This is coming from the guy who thinks about new wheels every two weeks.

yeah and you dont even need to dismount them, just notecard them. The high heat ceramic engine paint held up very well for over a year on my wheels.
