Cool Powder coating the A-Spec wheels

has anyone done that? I was considering powder coating the inside of the wheel BLACK (to match my NHP/Ebony setup), but leave the ouside rim the way it is... or maybe even get it polished.

Has anyone done this and can give me general guidance on how much it would be and how long would it take, etc.

Great question... I actually wanted to know the same thing regarding the stock 5 spoke rims... Instead of getting all new rims, I was going to have them painted a gunmetal type color that I thought would look nice on my NBP, and also be a set of rims that are 100% custom...

Any thoughts? Can this be done?

bringing up the old topic. I'm thinking about this again. Any fresh thoughts or advise on where to go for this kind of job?

Just call a metal plating shop. The other idea is to go to a performance wheel shop to get a lead.
