Default Wheel refinishing/powdercoating...

I just bought a set of AP2V1s from JDM EM1 and they have minor curbage. I'm contemplating selling because I found another set of wheels I like but I want to keep these too...ugh!

If I do keep them, I want to get them refinished and powdercoated. Anyone know of any good shops in Georgia?

Any idea what it would cost for all four?

Thanks man. None of the damage is too killer, just some minor rashing.

Could you elaborate? I've never done wheel repair before.

If it's not too expensive I'd rather just get it done right.

Somewhere in the neighborhood of expensive, about $600 bones. You did say "good" powdercoating.

well if you want them painted out of a paint guy i could to that. im just not a huge fan of oem painted wheels (just my .02)

and its not worth powdercoating oem wheels when you can get the same affect w/ auto paint. not a durable but a lot cheaper!

what color are you going w?

any pictures of you wheels

im thinking of painting mine very soon also.

I was thinking either flat black or a gunmetal/dark silver.
