Powder Coating Rims

[S13Deviat]

I know this has already been discussed on here but i'll be stuffed sideways if i can locate the thread!

Now my dilema is that i have a set of 17" 5zigen rims which are chrome....i like the shape of em but not the chrome.....what i am after is, does anyone know of a good place located on the north shore/northern beaches that powder coat wheels.....also can change the colour of em to a dark grey / black..ie Lenso Musa style!

I need them to be fixed up a little..ie some scratches on outer rims need fixing up aswell!!

If anyone has had this done and preferably in the area stated plz post em and a rough price that it cost!!

Cheers

Ando

2pak paint comes up really really well, i had my stockies painted in metallic gold with a white/silver pearl, looks amazing in the sunlight.

Just make sure u remove the weights (whoops), else u will end up with small bits unpainted when u get ur wheels rebalanced

[Hiroshima Screamer]

ive gota a mate that paints them , done a few cars for SAS but his not from Northern beaches if your still intrested pm me

[S13Deviat]

Memphis u got any pics of the wheels? How much does it cost roughly per rim to get this 2pac ( lol sorry couldnt resist ) 2Pak rather, painted?

I'll do some calling around see what prices i can get....compare em to WA

Cheers

[KamikazeR33]

makes me think to do mine too now

at least i have family who r into painting services and do 2pak and powder coating

[EDS33T]

For rim repairs I recently had 2 R31 GTS1 rims fixed at Abarth Wheel Repairs in pioneer place, thornleigh. They done a top job at a good price.

[Guest RedLineGTR]

sounds like a plan...mmm powder coat....

[akeenan]

GOD DAMNIT PICS!!, its been 1 day now comeon:D

bump..

Powder coat is a lot tougher than 2pac, something to consider since wheels will get abused a lot more than your panels. ie, gutter scrapes, replacing tyres and wheel weights, even just taking them off and scratching them with the wheel brace.

[KamikazeR33]

good info JimX

[[Ken]]

Does powder coating involve some sort of clear protective coat on the top? I don't want to get my wheels powder coated any colour, I just want the gutter scrap repaired and put some sort of clear coat on the top to give it that 'new' finish.

Have any of you done this? How much did it cost approx?
