I tried getting my miniram powder coated and they wanted a minimum of $250 to do any work. They usually work on wheels and get between $4-$500 for a set. There is actually a guy on this board who does it but i do not know if he would do wheels. He did his own Stealthram. Sorry, i do no tknow his name. good luck

Yeah about $500 sounds right. My wheels will be comming in about a month. Depending on the color I paint my RS, I might get them powdercoated. Call local Import Performance shops. They will know where to go.

It's cheaper do do it yourself.
It'll cost ya about $300 but you'll be able to do more pats after that thus saving money and that is a good thing,Right?

Dam that's alot of cash.

For my daily driver I had some 16 inch rims sand blasted and powder coated white. It cost $80 to sand blast and another $80 to powder coat.
