Hello I have a question about painting wheels, I really love the SF-challenge wheels but it seems like they only make them in Gold now a days and with a Lightning Yellow car I'm not quite sure how it would look. So obviously with a LY I would definitely want to make them black if the gold's don't pan out.

The questions I have are
A) Can a shop (Tire or body shop) really paint the wheels to make them look exactly like I want them????
I want them to go from this


Into this


Is it possible to get an ALMOST exact match, and will the paint be high quality? How much would it cost to make this transformation? Where would I go to get this operation done? Would it add an excessive amount of weight to the wheels? I really have no idea and would just like to get a bearing on the cost and quality that I could expect.

a shop could powdercoat them bright pink if your heart so wished. (and your wallet.)

diamond black will be a tough color to match. it'll be pricey.

whats pricey though, ballpark figure, $500? $1500? $50 LOL

i think 500 is too much, might as well get better ones that come painted that way already.

gold on yellow... that might be cool try it. it'll be diffrent. but it might also look cool as hell.

Have somebody photoshop it first! Hell, you could spray paint them if you wanted!

But I think a black powdercoat would look good with your yellow, especially if you have tint and some other black things.

Powdercoat around here runs about 100 per wheel.

Yeah Powdercoating would be the best way to go. Paint and spray paint will chip and look like crap in a very short time.

Depending on your location we can do your wheels very cheap if you wanted.

PM me for more details.

We can do it for probably $350 shipped with professional quality.
