Mega Powdercoating in El Monte... has anyone heard of em? $160 for 4 18" wheels...
sounds cheap to me, this other place quoted me 85 a wheel 
also, for powdercoating wheels, what does it come down to when you're talking about quality? i know for paint unless its a 2-3K paintjob, chances are the quality will be
so i'm wondering if its within the same sense as the wheels...
any feedback would be greatly appreciated, TIA~!

I had my old rims powdercoated. $50 per 18" is what i paid. I dropped em' off and they gave me a HUUGGEEE book of "house of colors"/"dupont" paint samples to choose from. I picked the color, and about 2 weeks later i picked em up. They sandblasted the wheels, smoothed down all the rough edges and curb checks, and they actually came out really nice! I actually plan on buying some Racing Hart's in the future, and getting them powdercoated a custom color. I say go for it! :thumbsup!:
Hey Recycle, in my homepage, under my name, is my Yahoo photos. Theres some picts of my new powdercoated wheels. (before they got distroyed
) So if your looking for some picts, there might be a few that can help you deside if u like the quality/look of powdercoating

They did work for us a few years ago and it ended up peeling
I highly recommend Primo in Huntington Beach. Personally, you may also want to look into painting them.
