How much do you think it would cost to get all five of my wheels powdercoated black? What about line-x'ing my grill black? Is that something I could do on my own? TIA

check in the phone book. i know of a place in pflugerville that does powdercoating. i have had wheels from my previous car powdercoated there. just make sure they sand blast it real good.

price can range from 50 - 100 a wheel.

Eastwood paint's, powder coating system, along with an OLD electric stove and you can powder coat wheels.
Just make sure not to bake any pizza in that often again, it will taste like paint.

well now that i'm pretty sure I can;t fit 12.50 wide tires I'm guessing I'm going to have to get new wheels http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

You can't fit a 12.50 safely on the stock rims IMHO, because they are only 7.5" wide.
You really want a 10", although you'd get away with 8" at a push.

Get a set of Tech1 RockCrawlers from 4 WheelParts.
Cheaper and better looking than those stupid stock rims.
