    Default refinishing wheels

    I would like to have my stock wheels refinished in hyper black or gunmetal if at all possible, is there any place in town that can do this? They are just your regular six spoke honda wheels. If you know of a place that does this can you leave a number or address or something, I have looked through the yellow pages but didn't come up with anything that really suits. Thanks, PS - Do you have any idea what the cost of it would be per wheel, or for the whole set? Thanks again.

    It's going to cost you more than the wheels are worth unless you do it yourself.

    i was thinking about trying this a while ago, but couldnt really find any information about it, I'd be willing to try it myself if there was some information available on the subject.

    do you reccomend a particular location? There are a bunch in the yellow pages, they probably all have simmilar services, maybe someone here works at a place like this.

    Gah.. Top Gun screwed me over..
    They coated my headers... 5000km later they were peeling.. THey didn't coat it right..
    now my headers are rusting, and it's a 10-12 hour job to take 'em off and put 'em back on..

    me and a friend did my wheels a year ago with dupacolor (sp?!?). It turned out great, but the only thing is that it chips eaisly. If you want these things to last longer, get them powder coated. Unless you feel like retouching ever so often.
