Shop for painting wheels in DFW area? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Can anyone recommend a shop who can paint wheels in the DFW area? I have a detailed two tone application and the body shop who I thought could do it says they don't.

Thanks.

There used to be a big wheel place on Harry Hines, around Walnut Hill I think.... it's been years though.

White side customs does custom powder coating and paint. I bet they could do two tone in either paint of powder coat, and if so, I'd say go with the PC.

Good point. I had not thought of Whiteside , and I know several people who have used them. I'll give them a call tomorrow. Thanks

Thanks for the tip, that is good to know that there is a powder coater right in my neck of the woods. However, I think I will stick with paint as I think what I am trying to do is too complex for powder application.

I'll let you guys know what I find out. I did talk with Mike over at Whiteside and got a lot of good information. The wheels I was looking at may be too heavy for what I want, so now I am looking at alternatives.
