If you're going the powder coat route, check out Cyclone Coatings in Edmonton. Check out their instagram too, seems they do a number of unique powdercoats...

I already posted these pics in another thread, but thought they also belonged here. Didn't care for the center cap stickers included with the wheels, so I found these on ebay. I'm happy with the look. It really does look better in person than in these photos. 17x9 square with 245/40r17 Dunlop DZ101 I got dirt cheap. Installed for $370!

I will probably just paint them myself, powdercoating is expensive and these wheels aren't really worth that kind of money in my opinion.

Remember, with stock alignment, the front will stick out much more. A degree or more of negative camber makes all the difference.

Thanks! Lowered on Eibach Pro-Plus kit, only 1". The Pro-plus kit comes with springs, new bumpstops, rear dust boots, and both sway bars and bushings for under $500. Eibach springs are supposed to be really good. I've had them on for three weeks now, and they are still the same ride height as the day I put them on. I'm really pleased with the outcome.

Did you dial-in any negative camber up front?
