Default Powder Coat Shop?

After a lot of though I have come to the conclusion that my next mod will be one of the two choices, Comptech adjustable springs, or powdercoating my oem rims a glossy black finsh. Hoping someone can help me out by pointing me in the direction of a good shop in michigan to take my rims to to get the powder done...

Thanks for any input...

sorry for the late reply, but i use my boy at discount tire, he's got places all over, i was actually gonna powdercoat my 18's over winter to a lite anthercite and he's got someone good in the livonia or waterford area , and he told me about 70 bucks a wheel for 18's , so i can't imagine the stock ones being more than 50 bucks a wheel. i can hook you up with him if you want, let me know, he works at the commerce township discount tire

Hey thanks alot i was basically getting no where on my own. Gonna go with a glossy black, as soon as winter come around I'll pop the wheels off and get em done, if you could get me info like shop name, location price per wheel etc, i would greatly appreciate it thx

Next step will definately be powder coating, since I'm already running eibach springs and dont wanna go any lower than 1" drop anyhow so adjustables would kinda be pointless for me....

Yes sir, i got my baby back around july 1st and shes running like champ.
I gotta say very impressed with alaniz head technologies for great work on my head, lol.
well i will probably be doing mine over winter too, so maybe we can all do it together and get a deal on it, i don't know the exact name of the shop, i go thru discount tire and they handle everything for me. it's a lot easier.

Cool, thanks, like I said no rush on this, I dont intend on getting this done until the winter time when I can no longer drive the S anyways. I think from there I will pick up an Amuse front lip and replace the oem one

If you end up talking to your guy at Discount let me know any knew details you get along the way, a GB on the powder coat sounds cool to me well us three at least lol not really a group more of a small party..
