I have the name, address, and phone number of two places here in the Chicagoland area. Unfortunately, they are on index cards at work....where I won't be going back to until Thursday.
If you can wait, I will have them for you Thursday.
BTW, one place is called Trans Wheel, and the other is KMS Wheel.

Evolution Motorsports in Arlington Heights....only commission them to do the powdercoating. They are a great shop for Civic, Ecclipse, Integra, etc. tuning....but just just wouldn't leave my S2K with them.
I don't have a number for you but can look it up.
Also, I had slight rim damage on my rear left and took the car over to Tech Cor (an autobody repair shop owned by my employer Allstate, based in Palatine).
They charged me just under $80, gave me a loaner steel wheel of proper diameter and sent it off to Trans Wheel. Two days later I picked up the wheel on break from lunch; the rim looked perfect.
Maybe if you call up Tech Core, they can do something for you. Here's their number: 847-402-5000

Just called up Pro Tek at 630-257-5268. Sounds like exactly what I need since w/ ProTek I won't have to deal w/ a middle man. I'll post some pics when everything gets done. I might also do the calipers if I get courageous. S2KI is the best!!!

one of the guys that works there a few years ago took my rims and had it powder coated.
He said he had it done at his work ( arandas tire ).
It cost me i think 140.00 each wheel....
I think he might of sent it out. (consignment)
But it came back lookin very good....
