Painting Stock Wheels

Irishace · 11-21-2009, 12:15 PM

I really like the MSport stock wheels very much but I would love them in matte black. Is there any way to accomplish this, anywhere in the GTA that could paint my stock wheels?

You mean powdercoating right? I'd be interested in that too but I'd like my rims to be GunMetal or Black with a bit of gloss.

Do a search for powder coated wheels. There have been pictures of matte black powder coated wheels on this site. It isn't my cup of tea but if the powder coated wheels did look pretty trick.

Both work, but I think the powder coat provides longer life and better durability

Thanks guys!

I have a friend who does it, he owns his own paint shop. If you PM me, i can get you a contact number...I think he told me around 300-350 to do it. He does a great job though

paint or powdercoat? Where is he located?

untouchableE82 · 11-23-2009, 05:13 PM

i have a guy who can do it as well. he did my rims as well as many other peoples his work is amazing and i can speak for it. most people have seen my rims and the quality of the powdercoating.
if you want pricing i can find out the prices for any rims you want to powdercoat

Garduna · 11-23-2009, 05:52 PM

I'd really like my OEM rims powdercoated. Will probably get that done in the spring time. I'm guessing he'll do time attack pinstripes for an extra cost too right?

powdercoat...
thats quote is for all the wheels total.

He is pretty well known on the japanese car forums for his ride, he does great work...

I'm gonna be going to him for all my paint stuff

untouchableE82 · 11-23-2009, 10:54 PM

i can get the time attack done for you as well. it doesnt cost much= roughly 40 - 50 bucks
if you want to do a group buy with my guy maybe he will work out a price but need a good amount of rims. maybe 5 sets or so?
i paid 600 to powdercoat my rims and 50 to time attack them.
but you have to be careful with time attack because since there is no lip if you go through a car wash it might come off due to the amount of pressure water.

Garduna · 11-23-2009, 10:56 PM

I'm just gonna need powdercoat. THe time attack is for future rims :P

Untouchable, does your guy do touch ups? I have some very very minor rash on one of mine, DOH! They should be off the care very soon as I don't want to get stuck if it snows.

untouchableE82 · 12-01-2009, 04:38 PM

yea he does touch ups. whenever you get the rim off the car. ill take a picture and send it to him or ill give you the address and you can call him and go see him

WonWunONE · 12-03-2009, 03:52 PM

OP

Any pictures of your wheels yet? I've been looking to do this to my car with the same wheels and haven't seen any pictures of one already done.
