Well if you have a junky oven or know of anyone with a junker you could toss outside, you could do these yourself.

The guns only like $50 or so from Harbor Freight and powder there is cheap also. Works pretty much as good/same as the brand name gun.

Nope... And yeah I know since I'm the one who hooked you up with him :D
And his name is Lee (left that part out in the first response)... He can do single solid color/ two tone/ and even 3 tone powdered rims :thumbsup

you wouldnt want to do something that big yourself. you gotta media blast and fill any imperfections, powdercoating looks good but it shows everything.

ill prolly get em powdercoated black or white, or even a two toned black with red in it. with sum big muddin tires on em. cant really tell from the pics , but the bars stick out about a half inch to an inch from the rim. tires are in good shape, should be able to sell them and make my money back.

I have a set 16x9.5 wide Eagle? or American Racing? rims I want powder coated. I had them on my F-150 for about 1000km's. They're just sitting in the garage now. I also have some 16x10 wide American Racing that I want powder coated. They're on the F-150 right now. Salt got to the finishes on both sets. Both (were) polished aluminum. More like a cloudy grey now.
