Powder Coating Rims
Thinking about Powder Coating my rims. Can I get some feedback on cost and how well it looks and holds up. Thanks in advance.

Should hold up fine, My buddy had his headers done over 10 years ago, and they still look brand new. IMO if it can take the abuse of headers rims should hold up. Price varies and you want a rep. place, not some dude doing it in his garage. Ive heard some nightmare stories.

Cost me $360 for sand blasting and coating it was well worth the money.

Has anyone ever done this in any color other than black? Would be hard to keep clean but I was thinking about doing mine in white.
