I used Kings Powdercoating in Anaheim and can't recommend them enough. Great service and pricing. I got my wheels powdercoated for $50/wheel. (714) 326-9336

I might be interested in this too. About how much do they charge? Is it like the $50 mentioned above per wheel?

Check out @RJ_coatings on Instagram and you'll see literally thousands of pictures of his work. It really is good stuff, he just finished up my turbo parts and they came out great!

RJ is in the $250-350 range. You can get away with $200 at some shops but they don't do much prep work. RJ makes sure to completely strip and clean the parts before coating so that the finish comes out perfect and lasts.

BTW, RJ does all the original coatings for Varrstoen and Klutch wheels. His work is well known.
