If anyone is interested in getting their rims powder coated pm me.

I have a buddy that owns his own business. I think he's charging about $240-280 for a set of 4 rims.

His work is excellent. I knew him when i used to own a Eclipse GST. In the 4g63 community he did some eye candy jobs. Valve covers, rims etc.

He graduated from Mac University and opened his own business.

If you want more info or interested in more of his stuff, pm me and i'll get in touch with him.

Okay, i got in touch with my buddy and he told me that the pricing all depends on the rim. He's talking about the design of the rim and such.

Pm me and i'll send you the info if your interested.

hey guys,
I'm looking at powder coating the stock rims on my GTS cuz I'm cheap like that I'm looking to do a gun metal color. Thoughts? suggestions?

Is the carcone place in aurora? I don't really want to travel that far up. Are there any other places that you guys would recommend?

Thanks!

Hello,

I think you people are talking about me. I do powdercoating as part time business. you might of seen some of my work at the CSCS booth at the international autoshow, the 240sx had rims done by me and i actuallly sponsor the car.

My webiste will be up very soon but until then send me a message on here and i will give you a quote. i'm really busy right now but i'll do my best to accomodate some of your projects.


I apologize in advance slyy. How do you know me? From MAC?

Maybe Slyy is talking about someone else? lol otherwise it'd be pretty funny for him to know you and call you his buddy without you knowing it.
