Default Thinking about powder coating my rims..

I have stock 5 spoke 16 inch rims, and I think they'd look nice in a flat black powder coat.. What do you guys think? And how much would this cost?

Fixed.

I've seen a few of the stock wheels powder coated black, and they look good on certain colored cars. You can do it yourself for pretty cheap.

I agree that $75-$100 per wheel would be the expected cost. I was quoted $80 per wheel at a shop by me. Flat black would be a good wheel color for any color car. Post pics when they are finished!!!

Go to photobucket, upload them and copy the code that has [IMG] at the beginning and end. Then paste it in here.
