If you aren't intersted in powdercoat but just want it painted, do it yourself. Sand it down and get it painted. Or brig it to a local bodyshop like Continental Autobody..ask for Tommy..and get a price quote. Shouldn't be more than $200 for a set of four wheels.

Bodyshops willonly paint.
Powdercoat, you'd have to do a search, but at that price, you might as well do a trade+cash with someone.

BBS paint quality is something I'd keep. But thats just me.

BTW, the Bridgeport Rd one will work. Ask for tommy and tell him sexy Derek sent you. Derek w/ the Miata and old Subaru.

BBS rims I would not paint, I'd get it powdercoated. I think a place called Panther does it locally?

Pm you polarpreza

Yeah I want a good professional place with a good oven for powdercoating. I don't want my rims to break on me when driven hard.
