Default Looking for cheap and good powder coating

Can anyone point me in the direction of a cheap powder coater in the san francisco area. I'm looking to powder coat a pair of wheels and my coil springs and top hats..

Thx

Cheap and good powdercoating? Quality work is usually never cheap. Look into Memory Fab

No recommendation for the SF area, but I send everyone over to Maas Brothers in Livermore. They have a lot of experience powdercoating wheels.

My definition is best bang for your buck.... I'm powdwecoating springs and top hats to hide away some corrosion and prevent rust... So in the end I don't need $500 in powdwecoating cost just for protection... I remember seeing a person in San Jose doing it cheap but can't find his info any more.... I'm looking to spend around $100 for the set of suspension parts.. As for wheels I'll look into that later when funds clear up..

I dont agree with any of these people. There are shops that charges a fair price and does amazingly good job.
Talk to eddies auto body, tell them kaan with s2000 sent you, they know me very very well, did my car. Give them a call, mention my name get the deal. I will get my wheels powder coated through them as well

West Coast Powder Coating is where I've done all my stuffs. They're in SSF, 5 Stars review on Yelp A set of wheels would be $400
A friend of mine just did his J-Lines in Matte Red, came out real nice.
One iphone I have of the wheel

Just because you pay top dollar doesn't imply that you get the best quality, it just means you paid more than average. It's that simple.
