Hey everyone! i was wondering if there were any experienced people in the bay area who have painted their wheels and turned out nicely. I just purchased ms3 wheels and im looking to paint it bronze, but i dont want to powdercoat just in case things go wrong and the wheel warps. I saw this picture and it was the most amazing paint job ive seen on a wheel http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/5456/dsc05285ky2.jpg Is it possible for anyone to do it around the same caliber? let me know if you can and if you have samples of your own wheels that you have done, i will pay for your services! thanks!

there are pics of my MS3 wheel painted aroudn ehre.!
PLus Powder coating ovens are onyl around 400-450 degrees. but your caliper paint is desighned for 500 degree. think the brakes woudl warp them first.

Temp threadjack; didn't want to create a new thread for this simple question.
About how much should I expect to pay to get some eyelids painted? I want them color matched to my velocity red mica paint. Trying to determine whether to buy or not. If it's "hella bank" to paint them then it may push a simple $40 mod out of my budget.

AT&T service equals kyles poop shots  Chris, keep it on the low. It's me YVES. I just wanna troll the forums right now.. hahah.  Its pretty much an inner membrane that comes out during defecation and retracts afterwards. Serves to keep their actual outer butthole from being full of shit all of the time.
