www.metalcoaters.ca

he's got a pic of my wheels up on the site. (high gloss black powdercoat) have them for about a year now mounted, no problems, no chips and very strong quality.

I also have a thread up from my process:

They're great as long as you're not finicky on the color.

High gloss black is fine, but if you want something like an OEM color match, or some fancy unique colour, it'll take a while.

Simple base colours that are often used will be quick and easy.

What colour do you plan on doing? I might do my OEM GT rims also. Maybe get a faster turn around or better price :)

Ask him to see actual samples (he should have some work done) because the color in those pallet books don't give u an accurate representation of what you think your getting.

Also his turn around time is remarkably slow, but hey... if u dont mind waiting and saving 200, good bet.

I'm not sure about what color, but it won't be black or gunmetal

I had an awesome experience with Metal Coaters. He powdercoated my MS3's in gunmetal and did an amazing job. Really reasonable price.
