I decided to follow in Neo's and TGL's footsteps and move one step farther towards The Dark Side and total HOAB world domination! :D

Thanks guys! :D
I like the black a lot better than the chrome letters and I'm actually surprised at how much of a difference it makes in the look. I can't wait to do or get the wheels done.

TGL - How much did you pay to get the wheels PCed?

I paid $60 per wheel, tax included. I'm going to put wheel protectors for offroading though.

:mad: I paid $100/wheel, not including tax. They tried to charge me $125/wheel, but I had an email quote!

Eek! :eek:

I can see the old rattle can coming out if they quote 125/wheel! $60 sounds a lot better.

I just spoke with two powder coaters, and a Teflon coater so we'll see what happens. TGL - You've see Neo's wheels in person. How does his hand done job compare?

I guess they gave me a good deal because they also powder coated my "skid plate", "fuel door", "roof bars" and FREE "side marker light guards". :D

skid plate - $40
roof bars - $40
fuel door - $35
5 wheels - $300
side marker light guards - free

tax all included

I've seen both...and I like both. Can't really tell the difference. Except that Neo's are shiny black and TGL's are flat black.

Looking good. The slow transformation reminds me of the scene from "American Werewolf in London" when the guy changes into a werewolf!
I, myself, feel the pull to the darkside as well... One day.
