i just purchased a beautiful set of rs4 reps for my cousin down in mexico city, he wants them powdercoated in the time attack style, ive called around and everybody tells me they cant do it. Anybody want to reccomend me to a good shop where they can charge me a reasonable rate and quality work?? I have never gotten anything powdercoated so i dont know of any places. Thanks beforehand!

It can be done. Contact David-jetta 1.8 (http://www.socaleuro.com/forum/member.php?u=14530) here. He does media blasting and stuff out here in Palmdale. Tell him what you want, I bet he can do it and his prices are MORE than fair

your best bet is to powdercoat them black and have a good pinstriper add the red stripe.

I wouldnt mind that as long as it wasnt too expensive

Magmasters wants 85 per wheel just to powdercoat them black! I am still waiting for a call back from central powdercoating, also another place whos name starts with an I (forgot their name) wants 300$ for just black. All these prices seem high to me, i always figured it would cost around 200$ to get them powder coated.

Well to be honest with everyone, Time Attack style IS POSSIBLE, Just alot of places dont want to take the time/ effort in making the wheels identical.


Good news is that I have done it b4, It just take a little time to do and make sure all 4 wheels are identical. I wrote back to your pm.
