Anyone know of a place in the Eastside that does this stuff for rims?

Funny, I was just thinking the same thing... I was looking into this a few months back. There is supposed to be a place in North Bend, but other than that I came up empty in my searches.

Why don't we do this together? Maybe we can get a better deal (we'd better).

I actually found a place right by Willows Run golf course. I-90 Finish or something like that. They're nowhere close to I-90, but I hear they're better at doing the work than naming things.

You in? Currently, it's at $50 per rim. Not a bad deal. If you say yes, I'll set it up. But realize that you'll be without car for about a week unless you have another set of rims. I'll try to get them to expedite.

Total cost would be $200 for the coating + ~$80 for mounting and balancing. Either way, I'm going to do this very soon.

On second thought, I'd rather do my brakes first. Ask them if they'll do it in White.

Oh and yes, you can borrow my jackstands.

If that deal falls through, I do business with about 4 different local coaters/platers on a regular basis, don't think they'll be able to beat the pricing Ben got but you never know when you might need some options.

There is a place in Bend that does it. My buddy owns an M coupe and he called about the calipers. The guy who owns the shop said that he would do all the calipers for $45 total but we have to take all the rubber and that crap off the calipers first, then give it to him. North Bend is pretty far from here but if you would like me to find out how much for the rims, I could..
