Estimated cost to powerdercoat wheels

I'm looking at a set of wheels... they are different colored pairs, but selling cheap brand new.

I'm considering buying them and having 2 painted or all 4 repainted but wanted to know an estimate of what it'd run me.

They are 17x8 wheels if it helps. Not Chrome, 1 pairs black 1 pairs gunmetal. Gonna either do all 4 black or gunmetal.

17s should be around $250 without having to repair any damage. Its very difficult to match paint on wheels, most places will want to do all four.

^ They are in PA, the OP is in Jersey. $100 a wheel is expensive. My 19s cost me $350, that was all four, including dissassembly and sealant because they are three piece wheels.

BTW, you shouldnt call Lippstuh a kid.

Keep in mind, if they are different finishes, the cost may be a bit higher since they will need to be media blasted before they can be powdercoated. Some shops will charge more for that.
