isnt there a complex dipping and cleaning process involved? or is that chroming. yeah thats chroming. but a lot of care is neccessary when powdercoating so hopefully this guy has some experience.

If he knows what he's doing, that's a good deal. That's about $20-25 American, right? As for color, that's a hard one. My opinion is that silver or gunmetal looks best on t-grey, but look at HobieKopek, his t-grey Lancer has white rims.
