Powder coat or paint rims

b939625 · 04-09-2009, 07:21 PM

I have the stock rims but i wanted them black... The only powder coating place i could find in GA quoted me $75 a rim to do it.

Which is way to high !!!!! So now i am thinking about just painting them myself.... does anybody have any other suggestions on what to do????? i honestly dont want to paint them my self ........but its looking more and more like i will.

If they were after market wheels Id get them powder coated but since these are just stockers id paint them myself.
