Painting/powdercoating wheels
My 6ULs are looking sort of assy. I don't clean them enough and most of the time they have way too much brake nastiness all over them and the car looks like ****. I drive for two weeks after cleaning them and they're all ugly again. I have the silvers and they always look like they're mostly black. shitty black.
do i have any options for powdercoating or painting my wheels? i want them to be ultra-flat black, the color of brake dust. I want something durable. I don't want it to chip or flake off and look even worse. DIY or shop technique is fiene. And yes, I know it will add weight.

They will make them just like new. I don't know which store is closest, but at the Dallas store it is $100/Ea if there is no damage, and $125/Ea if they need to fix and powder them.
They can do flat black (no clear coat)
or "brilliant" black
These were both done at the store in Dallas, where I used to work and my wife still works. Both cars are ours.
