TGL powder coated his. Neo painted his. I'm sure powder coat will hold up better but you can't beat the price for a couple cans of paint.

Looks nice, I was thinking of doing something like that, but it was easier to just tell the PC'er to make them all black. :D

Lang - It's about $50-$125/wheel to PC. Places around here charged $100/wheel. :mad:

wow looking good man !!!!!!!!!!:cool: i like the way you did the wheels with the polished lip , looks real custom with the emblems :D we can always forgive you for alittle bling ;) looking sweet !!!!!!

Re: Because I'll never be a true HOABie
 
Do you even have to take the wheel off to do this? It looks like an easy & cheap job and i really like how it looks. My plain stock ones are buggin me.

hey lord , its best to remove wheel and tire from truck to avoid overspray on your paint . but no need to remove tire from wheel . i painted all my center caps and spare on a fri night and did the other four wheels on a sat . just scuff the clear coat with a scotch brite pad . tape off the tire at the bead and spray away :D

Re: Because I'll never be a true HOABie
 
one other thing i thought of after doing mine , you might try it , is get self etching primer and then paint over the primer might hold up better
