This seems like a lot. I just called our local PC vendor and can get all 4 wheels stripped/prepped, powder-coated and clear coated for $250.

I am currently paying 65/wheel in LA.
If you know anyone that had their wheels coated look up close and see how it was prepped. If it is uneven or if the clearcoat and prior paint was not removed properly do not go to that shop! From what I hear the prep is #1 for good adhesion

Here's mine in the middle. costs around $250. Prep them yourself to
save you some cash. Just sand them with finer grit when you're happy
with the smoothness. I'm doing another set white with a red lip.
