I'm interested and I can only make it out if there's no snow lol I didn't put on winter tires so my car sits in the garage most of the time
btw, I think powder coating should be diff based on peoples rims since the evos ones are forged aluminum vs gts rims which are alloy. I would expect there to be a price diff between the two lol and if the guy who does powder coating doesn't know the diff then I don't want him to touch it lol

Ok i'll call around tomorrow and post it up.. There's a place that will do $200 a set powder coating at Brimley and Ellesmere but i dont know if they are any good. I got that quote from a friend coz he lives close by there.

um there's a lot more to the process than just spraying it.
It costs like $120 bucks just to sandblast to get the clear coat off...and that's only if you have unforged alloy like the GTS rims. The acid bath to get the clear coat off GSR rims are way more

The $200 is quote for the 18s but im not powder coating my BBS.. Just my Rays 57D.. It does sound dirt cheap but i never been there nor heard any reviews from that place. I dont mind payin a bit more knowing it's gonna be a decent job.
