Hey guys, I posted a while back asking if anyone knew a good paint shop that'd be able to do some striping for me. Well I'm back, but this time I'm trying to find someplace where I can have my stock 18 inchers painted or powder coated black. I've been doing google searches for like a month now and I've yet to find even one place that'll give me a decent price. 100 dollars a rim? I'm sorry, I've had relatives have all four done for $100 when I was living in California.

I'm also not against doing it myself, but I've got -zero- experience painting anything, so I doubt I'd be able to pull it off. Anyone around here have experience working at a paint shop that could help me paint 'em up?

 

Motorsports Powder Coating in Delavan. I have seen their work at a swap meet and it looks good. It is probably about an hour drive from Milwaukee. Here is a link to their info and if you choose them I could help you get there cause it is kinda tricky and hidden.

Ooh sweet, I'll give them a call tomorrow. Once I figure everything out I'll give you a shout if you still want to head up there.

 

Sounds good to me.

 

let us know what happens...what you do, and how much!

 

Sorry for not updating sooner, but I've been having trouble contacting them. Every time I call I don't get an answer. I finally just went ahead and left a message. I've been talking to a buddy of mine and I may just end up painting the wheels with him over one of these upcoming weekends. If I do go that rout I'll definitely give you guys a play-by-play with pictures. We're putting in a new sound system sometime next week (all new speakers and a sub) as we already stuck a 7" Jensen motorized In-dash in her last weekend.

Also, I detailed my car for the first time on my own a few days ago (took 4 hours) but my camera's battery died before I could snap some pictures. It actually turned out incredible - I was sure I would've messed up and missed a whole chunk somehow (knowing my luck) but it really looked impeccable. Car looks like candy now, haha.
