Not sure the name, but Ive heard there is a place in Laurel that does it, you may want to check www.yellowpagesonline.com

I had some things done (I sent out) by a fellow Z owner---> www.thepowdercoater.com he does nice work and is resonable.

i know a guy down in Roanoke, VA... its a little far away from you but he does extremely good work for next to nothing... Ex. he was going to powdercoat my plenum for $70, but I decided to do something different.

The reason I ask is I'm thinking about picking up some 19" nismo wheels and getting the spokes powdercoated black to match the car.... leaving the lip polished of course...

Wow-sorry bro dont mean to insult you but you bent over yourself for that-did that really seem resonable to you? If not why did you pay it? I had my plenum powdercoated in a glossy finish for less than 1/2 of what you paid...

I had no idea how much powdercoat cost at the time. I am sure it only cost 1/2 that... everything AAM charges seems get extra $$ tacked on at some point.
